David Applebaum

Hard to believe it's been ten years. We don't get to Caddo as often as we'd like these days, especially since both my cousins that lived on the lake have passed, too. But we were fortunate enough to be able to spend a couple of days on Taylor Island recently to introduce Bob's siblings and their spouses to the lake we hold so dearly. (We stayed in one of Dottie's cottages, and imagine our surprise (and delight) to walk in and discover a painted portrait over the mantel of none other than...Apple!!!) Aaron took us on a wonderful tour of the lake, and we can't be on Caddo without wonderful images and memories of Apple coming to mind. Caddo and Apple are synonymous. One of Caddo's true "colorful characters!" And he would be so proud of Aaron for the life he has carved, carrying on his dad's legacy and educating people on the wonder that is Caddo. Miss you, Friend! Love from Bob and Sharon Piechnik

Aaron, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I haven't seen you for years but think of you often.

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal.

Hey dude, you were one of the good ones. Thanks for some very special (& fun) memories there in Marshall and on Caddo. Peace & Love.....

Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way; walk in it.” - Isaiah 30:21 (NIV 2011)

Aaron, Caddo Lake has lost one of our best! I have known David most of my life, and I was proud to call him my friend!! He will be missed by many!! Love you & praying for strength to get you through this time.

We are so sad to hear of Davids passing. Caddo Lake will never be the same. May the Lord comfort all those who are in mourning.

Aaron A.-I am so sad that such a great man has gone on. He was such a big part of my childhood and I have many many great memories that I will cherish for the rest of my life. My dad is very sad because he lost one of the greatest friends he ever had. May God give you comfort and peace knowing that he is not suffering anymore. I am always here if you need anything. I love you...stay strong!

May the God of Comfort give peace to the family during this difficult time. There is a hope for all loved ones who have fallen asleep in death and that hope will be realized in the not too distant future.

Hey old friend, rest in peace. May God bless you with eternal life.

Aaron, We are sad to learn your dad has lost his gallant fight. Caddo Lake has lost a piece of its soul. Our thoughts and prayers for peace and comfort go out to you and your family. Love, Sharon and Bob

I pray that God will comfort your hearts during this time of loss. David was an awesome man & touched the lives of others. He will be missed by many.

Aaron, my condolences on the loss of your Dad, he was a fixture on Caddo and I will surely miss him!
