Dear David,
We thought of you and said a special prayer for you on Oct. 8th. I want you to know we keep you in our thoughts and prayers daily. Miss and Love You, Aunt Connie and Uncle Steve

My dearest David this prayer is for you:
Lord, the death of my loved one has hit me hard. Ours was a relationship built slowly, over years of shared experiences. A friendship of that depth is beyond value, and I find memories of my loved one in many places. This death has made me aware of my own mortality and has challenged my faith. Yet, I hope in You. Your power over death and the rewards of Your promised kingdom are the only consolations I can find at this difficult time. Keep my faith and the faith of all who cared for my loved one strong. Let us always be a source of support and comfort to one another. Amen. Sometimes we decide to carry and show our faith differently and I know you know what I mean. I believe that you have given me so many signs and for that I thank you. You are thought of today and always. Love, your cousin Chrissie.

Dearest David,

It's still difficult, after 2 years, to realize that you are no longer with us only in spirit. But, today I thought would be a day to celebrate your life, because I know you wouldn't want me to be so sad. I'll be thinking about you tonight and the life you had with us. You will never be forgotten. All our love, Chrissie & Joe.

Dear David,

I've always believed that a life well-lived is one which continues to live on in the hearts and memeories of others, after our time here on earth is done. Yours certainly seems to be that. Happy birthday wherever you are and thanks for the help with my writing. With love, Stacy

To My Cousin David -- I haven't forgotten all of our memories we shared. I can't believe it's been 8 months; sometimes I still feel like I heard the news yesterday. I know you wouldn't want me to be sad; but instead just want me to remember all of the fun times we had and to live everyday to the fullest...like you did. There hasn't been a day that's gone by that I haven't thought about you; the person you were; your wonderful soul and the love for your family you had. Your spirit will be kept alive by the many people you touched along your way. You will always have a special place in my heart. All my love - Christine PS..I am reminded daily that you are still around and I am so grateful for those little signs.

To My Cousin - David:

These past six months have been difficult, but I'm trying to cope with your loss. I do feel like there are some days that go by that you are giving me little signs to show me you are okay...and believe me I need those signs...because they make me smile & think of you. I know that you would tell me to live my life to the fullest like you did, but I want everyone to know that I haven't forgotten how special you are and how thankful I am that I was able to get to know you better in the last few years of your life. When my time comes I can only hope that you are there to greet me; so that I will be blessed with that same sense of security, love and fun spirit you shared with all of us here. Miss ya. Love your cousin, Chrissie.

To My Cousin--David,

I know the Holidays will be difficult for our family; but somehow I know that you are here with us; helping us through these tough times. I will never forget the way you've touched my life and the way that your spirit has touched so many others--that is so typical of you! I missed our Christmas phone call this year, but somehow I know you still heard me. All my love this Christmas and always....Your cousin--Christine PS..I'm working on "your project"; I can only hope that it turns out to be half as great as you.

Although I never knew David his life has touched mine through Christine. She is a special woman who I know will somehow carry his life to others, like me, who he never met but has greatly impacted. The "Cricket Story" was so touching.... Christine, thank you for sharing.



Peace to David and his loving family.

Though I haven't seen David in many years, I will always cherish his free spirit -- a spirit that was not limited by expectations or constraints. A spirit that was always accepting, open, and filled with pure joy.



Though his life on earth seemed short by most standards, his amazing spirit remains for his family and friends -- while he moves to the next stage of his being.

Dear David,



Some of us live our whole lives and never learn to shine as brightly and beautifully as you did in so short a period of time. With your sparkling eyes, your mischievous smile, your fun-loving nature and your enormous heart, you were a glowing example of what it truly meant to live. I'm sorry that I didn't get the chance to know you better while you were here with us, but I know that you will live on in the memories and the hearts of all who knew you. You will be terribly missed.



Love you,

Stacy

Dear David:

Losing you has made our hearts painfully heavy. We will always remember 3 stages of your life, holding you as a baby, watching you fooling around at home in Simsbury and always making us laugh, and holding baby Lillian the day of her Christening. Only you will know how much you are missed.

Love Always,

Uncle Steve & Aunt Connie
