David was a very nice boy.. I didn't really talk to him outside of school but during school he was such a great person. He cared for many people and he made many people laugh. He stuck up for his friends and had a big heart. I'm truley sorry about your loss. Just know that you will see him again. My love goes out to his family

Dear Family,
This is truly a great loss for all who knew David. David became a part of out family when he and Jeremy were in about 8th grade. Myself, my daughter Mackenzie and of course Jeremy got to him him well and spent alot of time with him including him in every family activity we did. I had such a soft spot for David, he was the kindest and most polite kid I have ever met. I remember one peticular camping/fishing trip we took him on. I remember I was in the river fishing a hole that had plenty of fish. I was catching so many fish and David was sitting on the bank in front of me, everytime I caught a fish he waded out to me and helped net it and took it off the hook for me ( even fixed my line several times after I tangled it) this went on for several hours. I kept telling David to get his pole and fish but he said he would wait until I was finsihed because he knew I needed help. On that same trip we bet David and Jeremy $5.00 that they could not eat a salmon egg and keep it down, Jeremy's came back up but David kept his down and won the bet (think I still owe that $5.00. My daughter Mackenzie would always kiss him on the cheek and tell him that she was going to marry him someday, he would just smile and flip his hair out of his eyes. Jeremy and David had geat times hunting and fishing and Jeremy will always think of David when doing these activites in the future. We have many other memories of David,he was a very special person, but we will leave it at this for now and cherish the others in our hearts. Words can not describe the pain you must be in but I hope this gives comfort to you during this tragic time. You had a special son he will be missed but not forgotton by all.

I was only 3 years old when I met David. He was my very first friend. I still remember the first time I met David. It was my first day at preschool and I was all by myself playing with some toys and he come up and started playing with me. We became friends instantly. I remember when we were still in preschool and they gave out peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and they would only give out jelly sandwiches to the kids that were allergic to peanuts and we always said that we were allergic so we could get jelly sandwiches and then the next day we would have peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and they never seemed to remember. There was another time when we were still in preschool and I started to cry because my grandfather died and David didn't know what was going on and he started to cry with me. There are so many memories that we had over the 13 years I knew him. David I miss you so much. I miss the times when he went fishing and the times we sleep over at each others house. David I just wanted you to know that your not my friend but my brother and I will be waiting for the day that I get to see you again so we can make new memories. Karen thank you for being like a mom to me. Michele and Stephine I feel your pain.

David was one of the cutest boys, everything from his personality to his hair. He was in a lot of my classes at school and was one of the reasons i would be excited to go to school, so that i could just be around him. We were good friends and i know that i will miss him at school. I loved him and so did anyone that knew him. But i'm thankful to know i will see his smiling face again, after this life.

David was a great person to be around. He had the cutest personality out of any one I knew! I will always remember the times that I spent with him! It will be hard to go back to school knowing that David is not going to be there to make me smile! He had a breath taking smile. He will truly be missed and will always be in my heart!

Karen and family,
My deepest sympathies. David was like a son to me for many years. My son Brian and David meet in preschool and were great friends. We will all miss David terribly. David and Brian shared many of laughs and projects. When Brian heard what happened he pulled out the picture of David Michelle and him all covered in mud in David's back yard. That was just one of the wonderful memories that will remind us of David. Your family is in our prayers.

I am so sorry for your great loss. I knew David for more than 6 years. I knew him from school mostly. I remember in elementary playing night games w/ Jesse,Drew,Jarrod,Dean,and many more kids. He was the kid that made school interesting I'm sure everyone could agree w/ that. There wasn't a boring moment in a class w/ David.I will never forget David Johnson and sure no one else that knew him will either.
All my prayers are w/ David's family and close friends. Many will truly miss him.

Even though I didn't get the chance to know David well, the times I did talk to him were always fun. He always had something funny to say and I enjoyed seeing him at school, I am only sorry I never got to know him any better than I did. My greatest and most sincere sympathies go out to his parents, relatives, and close friends. May we all find peace of mind and remember David at his best.

I am very sorry about the loss of David. He was such an AMAZING kid. We shared many unforgetable times together. Some of the things I remember include, carpool, paintballing, bowling, toilet papering, ect. with Jesse, Chelcie, and Drew. He had the best personality and outlook on life. I remember wrestling season both our 9th and 10th grade years. Getting to spend that time with him was great! I am going to miss him very much and I will never forget him. My prayers go out to the family and close friends of David.

My Deepest Sympothy goes out to your Family. David was such a good friend to me and to so many others. We would always eat lunch together and then go walk around and talk. In ninth grade David would walk me home as often as he could and then we would watch t.v, and even though he hated the shows I picked he would still watch them with me. There has not been a week that has gone by in the last two years that me and David didn't talk on the phone at least 3 times, and I will deeply miss that. I have never met anybody that could make me laugh as much as he did. I loved David so much and so did many other people. We will truly miss him.

Our family's deepest sympathy to David's family and friend. Brittani was a close friend of David's and we had him in our home many times. We will miss him so much. I always teased him about how beautiful his hair was and Brittani would dye it darker for him. They would watch Oprah after school even though David didn't like that show. He was a sweet, polite, kind young man and our hearts break not to see him anymore. Love, the Beckstead family

I am deeply saddend by the loss of David. He was a great kid and young man and always gave me the courtesy of saying HI to me in the polite way that he could. Coaching him when Casey, Jesse and the boys were little will always be a highlight to me. My prayers will be with your family......

I wish to express my deepest sympathy to David's family and friends. I didn't know David well, but I remember a few times when he visited his grandmother Karen at our office. I remember a friendly boy who was very excited about going fishing with Karen and Jackie. I know he will be deeply missed and I also know there are so many happy memories of David that he will remain forever in the hearts of those who knew him.
