David God took you from us too soon, know our love and beautiful memories will keep you alive in our hearts until the day we all are together again. I will miss watching you play with all the kids when the family is together, like mothers day watching you play with Gia. My heart is broken that future nieces and nephews will never experiance your love the way the rest of us have. We love, miss, and think about you every day. Hold dads hand and give him a kiss from us. Until we meet again.
I love you!!!!

Life is so short! Dave had a thirst for life and lived his life in the fullest. All of his friends should remember him as so full of life and not his fateful demise on a Crete back road on his chopper. God bless and keep you close to him.
