David, it´s been years now since you have left us, I think about you from time to time, mostly when I hear something that reminds me of your sense of humor or something we have done. Since you left it wasn´t long after that grandpa joined you, the loss of you was hard on all
Of us, especially grandpa, we sure had a lot of talks me you and grandpa. I miss those dearly. Things sure have changed down here, I am a grandpa now, my kids are growing up fast. I often ask myself what would you be doing in life right now? What if i was able to get you to move with me to NC sooner? Maybe things would be different and you would be here with your daughter. I´m sorry that your life was cut short. Wish I could have saved you, you were my brother. In the meantime I hope you and grandpa are having a great time. Maybe fishing and cracking a few beers. Give grandpa a hug for me brother. I love you both. Till we meet again brother may you rest. Love you!

David It's still hard to believe that I am reading this. It's so crazy. Just as it seemed you were getting your life together, had found the life of your life and had started a family you were taken away...It's a sad situation. I know how much your family and friends are going to miss you because you were such a great guy and could always make people smile. I hope they find peace and comfort in their time of grievance and they always hold those happy cherished memories of you. R.I.P Dave you will be missed.

I would like to thank all those who expressed sorrow at our loss. david its nice to see how many lives you touched. you were an amazing person i know that we didnt know each other that long in the grand sceme of things. but boy did we have a fun ride anway. you filled a gap in my heart that i didnt even know was there. you filled my life with laughter and your constant craziness. it breaks my heart that you wont get to see iliza grow up but i know that youll be watching out for her. im sorry that our time together was cut short by you being taken too early and i regret that we wont be growing old together sitting on the porch talking about the good old days. but i will never forget you. you will always be in my heart baby. i love and miss you.
