There are so many thoughts and special memories I have about David. I first began as his cousin and grew to be his friend. Growing up around David and another cousin, Warren Lee, was just pure fun. I was a few years younger and they always treated me like their kid. I miss them both dearly. Times at Grandma Beeler’s house on Johnson Avenue, his treasured horses he loved to share, family reunions at Province Park, sharing the pound cake ration he brought home from his time in Korea, watching he and my Dad laugh so hard they cried, and as I got older, drinks and dinner at the Holiday Inn every month on our way home from work just to stay connected. We spoke several times as my Mother was dying and he wanted to be sure she saw a picture of his beloved Martin Houses, one of which was my Dad’s. He sent one and she was so happy that he was able to get the birds to come. I think it was his gentle nature and love for all animals. He was kind and caring and had a wonderful smile and engaging laugh, and yes, he was so good for your morale, which is apparent by the many wonderful thoughts posted on this Guestbook. My thoughts and prayers go to the sons he loved so much, Mike and Andy and their families.

Oh, the trips and adventures had with Dave! He was always up for the adventure. I'll always remember eating menudo with him in New Mexico, the fun in Spain, France and Italy. Always ready to try most anything. And I will miss hearing him say, "Girl!"...and then an exclamation about the topic we were discussing. Great person!

My sister Pam saw something special about him and he brought a large amount of love and emotion to our family. We were lucky to have him. I learned more from him than I did in school. I wish it had gone on forever.

I’m so sorry and sad to know this. Dave was a ray of sunshine whenever I saw him. A kindred spirit with love of animals and nature, and a really good friend to my parents. My fondest memory is him taking our tortoise, Doza, to a sanctuary in Texas after she could no longer stay at school. He loaded her up and took her along on an already planned trip to Texas.
