My, how time flies, Brother. You are a big part of me. I bet we caused Ed, Ted and both Sharons a LOT of gray hairs. Cindy too. I'm sorry for trying to spray you with the water hose, Cindy.
Love always,
Daron

I grew up with David in Abilene. We were close friends at Johnston Elementary. He went to Mann, I went to Lincoln, but we both went to Abilene High school. I recently found out about his passing. So sorry to hear this news.

Dear David, You were not only my next door neighbor and dear friend, growing up, but also one of my childhood heroes. You selflessly spent time with me to help me achieve my goals in athletics. I never could run as fast as you. Our last meeting, you were a cool College Guy, me a high school kid, but you took the time to give me ride in your super cool RX-7. I love you buddy and I'll see you again some day. Sincerely, Daron Franklin

Please accept my sincere condolences. May you please find comfort in the powerful words written in the bible for our comfort during these heartbreaking days, and moments. Matthew 5:4 reads.. "Happy are those who mourn since they will be comforted."
