I remember my cousin David with warm, sweet and cherished memories of us spending time together as children over the years at family get-togethers or visits with my parents (Bud & Lucille) and his Mother and Father (Aunt Laura & Uncle Roy). While so many years have passed since we've seen each other, those memories will be forever cherished in my heart! I'm so sad to hear of his passing, but he's now in a better place and with his sweet mother, Aunt Laura!

To Donna - my heart aches for you as I know the loss of a sibling and the empty space it leaves in your heart! The pain you feel today will ease with time, and memories will give you peace and joy!

To my Uncle Roy - I pray that you will have peace in knowing that he's in God's hands.

To Sandy, Christopher and your family - I pray that God will wrap his arms around you, hold you close, and give you comfort! Cherish the wonderful memories and remember that he lives on in you!

May God bless you all and keep you at this difficult time.

With much love - Terrie (Steele) Benore and family!
