Sincere sympathy to Molly and your family. David's kindness and advice to my late wife Carole during the time of their similar illnesses will never be forgotten. He was a great mentor and a true friend.

I am so sad to hear of your loss. I never met David but I went in the Multiple Myeloma Walk this year and I was so inspired by your family's work to raise money to fight this disease. His and your work lives on in the people whose lives he and you have changed. May he rest in peace and I hope he knows how important he was to so many people.
