I went to High School with Dave, in Hudson New Hampshire. It is my belief that we are all here for only a short while. Until the next life brings us closer to understanding all the questions and concerns we had that may or may not have troubled us in this lifetime. All anyone can ask of themselves at the end of each day is: "Did I do the best I could, with what I was dealt?"

I was a part of the David and Lisa era and became good friends with both. David was certainly larger than life...a big personality...the big man on campus. I always enjoyed outings with David and Lisa as they were entertaining and memorable. David visited me in the hospital when I gave birth to my daughters: Chandler and Shelby Welch. I always look for David's listings as I knew they would be the cream of the crop and was happy to see that he was performing at the top of his game again. My blessings to his family, especially to Nicholas whom I had the privilege of meeting on several occasions.

Sincerely and God Bless,

I worked with David @ Realty Executives while I was with Lone Star Title, Inc. His death comes as a personal shock. He was a lively, vivacios, and kind person. (And he LOVED chocolate!! He often came downstairs just to say hello and get any sweets we might have.) I enjoyed working with him, and it hurts my heart that he is gone. I will keep Nicholas in my prayers.
