You were a teacher among teachers. You believed in me and you made sighs difference! I will never forget you...kind, soft spoken and an overall great guy. You will be greatly missed!

I was looking for relatives. I don't know if David was a relative or not. But my maiden name is Melanson, my father was Bernard francis Melanson Jr.

I was saddened to hear only today of the passing of David. I often spoke with David as he walked around the neighborhood.
I found him to be so very nice, He always stopped and talked with me.
I have many nice memories of him and will miss seeing him.
Praying for him and wish him peace in the forever home we believe awaits us.
God Bless David!
