David was the best!! He was always at our house doing crazy stuff! I remember going to Duff’s and he and my brother, Bobby, getting into an eating contest. One of them threw up all over a car in the parking lot. Always a party when David was around!!

I’m so very sorry to hear about Jimmy. I was just looking through some of mom’s old photo albums and came across pics of us as kids. Those were great times. Praying for his family during this difficult time.
