Judy, I worked with David at Saturn. We had many laughs with Dave's sense of humor and laughter throughout the dealership. He will be remembered as a quiet funny man. I just found out of David's passing. My thoughts and prayers are you are with you and your family.

I just received the news about David a few days before Christmas. I worked with Dave for several years at the furniture store and enjoyed his humor and friendship. My heart goes out to you Judy and your family. May Gods peace be with you all.
