My condolences go out to the family.David was a wonderful person and a joy to know and work with at MCI. He is missed very dearly and has saddened all the hearts here in the work place. I will always remember him because he was never sad always happy, regardless of how he felt. I know words expressed can never take away the pain when you lose someone you love so dearly. But if it is any consolation,he will never die because he lives in your hearts and his wonderful memories will be cherished forever. God Bless you all and you will forever be in my prayers.
