DAVID JJ CARTWRIGHT

Happy 50th Birthday David
My son, my son, my sooonnn,
I love and miss you, say hi to mom

Happy Heavenly 50th Birthday!
Man do I wish you were here to celebrate this milestone with me. Cheers! Think of you always!

David, although I've known about your passing for many years now, I just stumbled upon this beautiful memory board in your honor. I'm not surprised there are recent messages given how incredible a person you were...
Even though it's been many many moons, I still think of you often, especially in this Taylor Swift era and one particular lyric of hers:
"I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
It was enchanting to meet you"

Jusqu'à ce qu'on se rencontre à nouveau,
B

Happy Christmas David. I hope you and your mom are being merry together in Heaven. We all miss you both down here. Love you.

Merry Christmas in heaven David. You always helped to make Christmas special for us. Great food, wonderful gatherings with friends. I remember the one year you made me find my Christmas presents. You had gifted me with a beautiful pair of diamond earrings.. not wrapped in a box and under the tree..no that would be too simple for you. Not in the bottom of a Christmas stocking..but rather way up high as eyes on the a Christmas Angel that say atop the tree. Yob always made things specials and put in so much thought . You are missed but boy, are you remembered!

Merry Christmas David, I can´t believe it´s another Christmas without you. We all miss you and love you with all our hearts.

David, David, David... it's been 11 years going on 12 that you haven't been here and it's been a lifetime since I've seen your face! I remember the summer of grade 8 going into grade 9 meeting you for the first time at Gateway 6. Fate had plans for us to be friends and we had this strange Ying and Yang friendship, that grew into family and although as we got older, moved onto new life challenges I never forgot you! I have so many fond memories of you and your laugh, your protection of me and your guidance right when I needed it. I miss you my friend, until we meet again... we'll always have Richard Marx xoxo

Hey ding dong. It´s not like I don´t always think of you but some nights more than others. I heard a song tonight that we bet on just before you passed. I always think about you when I hear it but tonight was different as someone else wanted to bet me on the lyrics. Idiot. I told them it´s how I easily won 50 bucks from you. Anyway, they lost. Love you sweets. Miss you every day.

Happy Birthday David, Linda & I had a nice visit with you and your mom yesterday on your birthday. Sending you lots of love and hugs. Miss you

Happy Birthday in heaven David. Big hugs to your mom and my gran for me. xoxo

Scott and I had a beer with you yesterday David and left you one. I´m sure Scott and I heard you laughing when we sang happy birthday to

Thinking about you today and everyday. Happy birthday.

David watching all these chef challenges on tv I'm sure we would have seen your smiling face several times by now R.I.P say hi to Tom your never far from our thoughts

Thought of you first thing upon waking yesterday and wished you a happy birthday, I just wish it didn’t have to travel to heaven to find you.

Happy Birthday my son, my son, my son. I had a great afternoon with your siblings and we left you a beer. Hug your mom.
Love Dad

Happy Birthday in heaven. I miss you.

My son my son my son, I spent some time reading your legacy this morning. There is a new message from Elizabeth for you birthday. So many responded to a Facebook post and I know so many still and always will miss you. My heart still aches so much thinking of you and not being able to hug you. We can't even get together at yours and your mom's grave because of a global pandemic. I wonder what you would make of it. Love Dad ❤❤❤

Thinking of you today.

Hey David,

I recently watched this documentary of the deaths of Biggie and Tupac and was reminded of all the hip hop you introduced me to over the years. As a child I found hip hop hard to understand at times but as i grew up i could understand the lyrics more and more and appreciate so much why you loved it so much. I wish i could talk to you about it. Such a small thing and a painful reminder of all the many things i cant ask you about or tell you about. You were my closest confidant and friend and I miss you every day David. I hope wherever you are you are happy and listening to to all the great music you shared with me over the years.

Hey David,

I have had a number of small panic attacks lately thinking of you. Some times the pain is so profound it hurts. This time of year I find especially hard. I miss you so dearly and wish you were here to talk to. I love you. Merry Christmas in Heaven.

David...I am speechless. I just found out that you passed more than 5 years ago. All this time thinking of you now and again and wondering what you were up to. What amazing travels, what yummy dishes you were creating, whether you had ever opened that restaurant you dreamed of owning??? You were always so full of life David. I had always hoped our paths would cross again. It breaks my heart to know that you are gone far too soon but I count myself lucky to have basked in your sunshine for the time we had together. Rest in peace David. xo

David Think of you often miss that wonderful smile. Always in my heart, missed but never forgotten Till we meet again Love Jenny xo

David, It gives me comfort to know that you're there for your Mom! I hope that you're reunion is every bit as beautiful as I imagine it to be. Rest in peace. Jean

I will always Call you my friend... R.I.P.

There are days where thoughts of you still float in my mind. How much I wish I could say hello, see your smile and hug you once again. ~ Elizabeth

David you are always on my mind and in my heart. I miss your hugs and kisses and our talks. I miss discussing your life and job and all those day to day plans but mostly I miss your love for me and family. Love Dad

Some days are still so incredibly difficult. I still can't believe you're gone...I miss you so much it hurts.

I only recently learned of Davids passing and I was shocked and saddened. I am so sorry for his family and friends who loved David so much. He was such a vibrant young man. Its obvious by all of these posts that he was adored by many. I'm so sorry he died so young. I know he will live on in the hearts of everyone who knew him. I have many wonderful and fun memories of him, as well as my favorite recipe, for lemon pepper chicken....which David cooked over a bunsen burner, on a cold and wet May 24 camping weekend deep in the middle of Algonquin park. That was David. Thanks for the fun memories. I will always remember you fondly. Kathleen

Cartwright!
I miss u tons buddy......I think of u all the time I've even been to visit u( I know u already know that) lol!
Anyway, I jus wanted u to know that I love u n miss u n u will forever be in my heart

I would like to thank everyone that has signed this tribute to my wonderful loving son David on behalf of Cheryl, Scott, Kathryn, Kaley and David's mother Freda. David touched so many people some very profoundly, he gave love to everyone and received it from all of you in return. We will miss him with all our hearts for all our lives. I talk to David every day and he lives in my heart and the hearts of his wonderful siblings. Enjoy David, I love you. Love Dad

I guess this will be the last time I can send a message. You will be forever in my heart! I will cherish the pictures and cards, they are tucked away safe as they always were and will remain that way. God Bless you and keep you safe!!

Hi David,
Thanks for pulling strings upstairs to allow the leafs to make it to game 7. I know we'll get em next year. I miss you more than words can express.
All my love,
Cheryl

David, i know you had something to do with the Leafs making the playoffs..Just wish you were here to see it too. Miss you...xo

It hasn't been that long since I learned of your death. It still doesn't seem real to me. You were a gift in my life that I will cherish forever! You were a part of my life that I will cherish forever. You were an angel on earth, and you are now an angel in heaven. I'm sure you and Kade are touching as many hearts as you did here on earth. I miss you!!

David, we miss you so terribly, I pray you are happy and your Grandmas and Aunt Ruth. We love you with all our hearts. Love Dad

A year has passed and Dave I can't put into words my memories and/or regrets. I do know for sure that I am so sorry. Meeting u at a&w at the age of 14 was a story and a half and then you getting a jay walking ticket coming to see me when you had a broken leg. Lol iwish the tragedy didn't occur and bet ur your a huge necessity up there. :) god bless you your famy and loved ones

A year has passed and I miss my friend. I cannot believe it was like it was yesterday. Everyday I ride I ride for you my friend. You will always be with us.

I have no words to express my deepest most heartfelt sorrow. I had no idea. You will forever live in my heart as you always have.

Although he has passed, his playful spirit lives in all who knew him. My condolences to his family and loved ones. Carolyn Falle

My thoughts and prayers go out to Kaley and David's family during this terrible loss. Words can not express how sad I feel. David you will be missed.

David was one of those people who "lived" their life. He had amazing energy about him and everyone was accepted in his world. You felt special in his world. He was honest and loyal, people like that don't come around every day.

David you are loved by many!

My sincerest condolences to, Kaley, Freda, Cheryl and the entire family during this time.

You and me were brothers. Your home always felt like home to me. I love you bud. Until we meet again...

My deepest condolences to The Cartwright family. He was a great guy to work with.

Your family is in my thoughts and prayers

Family was everything to David, and sadly we had him far too short a time in our family. The beauty of David was that you got to know him instantly and he shared himself completely.
The best we can do to respect his memory is to be there for his beloved wife Kaley.
The Dare Family (Aunt Sandy; Uncle Graham; Alexa; Kaitlin; Jacob and Sydney)

My deepest condolences to the family and friends at this trying time. May his memory live on always with those whose lives he touched. My deepest sympathies to Kaley, you will be in my thoughts.

My condolences go out to the Cartwright family. I went to school with David and he was a great guy and his smile always lit up any room. Don't worry my dad will take good care of David!!
