My condolences to the entire Jarvis family. He will be missed more than words can say. After 45 years of friendship, David enjoyed doing so many things and put his heart and soul into whatever he did. David was quite the handyman and craftsman. Perfection was his goal in everything he did. Surfing, playing baseball, fishing, or anything else he tried. He was fearless and did everything in the spirit of competition to be the best at whatever he chose to try. Always willing to help others whenever he could. David was not only a good friend but I also consider him a brother I will miss for a long time to come.
