To David's family, May your memories remain strong in your heart. My daughter, Amanda Murray told me a funny remembrance. She remembers having lunch with David and a small salad was placed in front of him. He quickly called the waitress over to their table and proclaimed, "Sweetheart this salad is as dry as the desert bring me a large bowl of dressing." Six years have passed and he still makes us smile. Sandra Barocio

David K, As I sit here and read your memorial page, I cannot believe it has been 5 years since you left us. There are still conversations about your time with the Sheriff's Office, the group getting smaller as many have joined you..."On the Other Side"...But, nevertheless, you have not been forgotten...

"It is not how many people you knew that matters...But, rather how many will remember you when you have gone..."

You are remembered bro...Continue to R.I.P....

Im extremely upset with the fact that I could not be there. Dave was the only father I had growing up, and it kills me inside to not be there for all of you. I love and miss him, aswell as I love and miss you all.

August 20, 2014

David was always kind to me. When I first came into the family, it was intimidating! David always embraced me with a hug and a kiss on the cheek,and asked me "how are you doing?" Always a kind man to me...Thank you!

David had been one of my bosses for the last 20 years and we've had our ups and downs but he was always there if you needed him. Work isn't the same without him around. You will be missed

I worked for David for several years and although I haven't seen him since moving out of state, I remember him often and fondly. He had a great sense of humor and a laugh that helped everyone around him feel happy. I only wish that I could have visited with him before his passing. I send my deepest condolences to his family and wish him eternal peace.

My oldest friend,,,59 years. We had plans to visit him that day, when I got the call that
he passed that morning. So glad Denise and I ran into him at El Burro a few months back. He was one of the few that, even though a few years would go by without seeing each other, it would seem like no time passed when we'd meet up. A good guy, generous and good a good heart. I'm so sorry that his mother has to go through this. Love you "J"

David was my good friend and client for over 20 years. He was my student in the police academy physical fitness (pt). He would (I determined after many years) hide out in the bushes and wait for us to return on 3 mile runs. Through thick and thin he was always there as my friend and I was always there for him and his Dad. I will miss them both greatly and I am reminded of my own destiny. I am off on vacation out of state and can't make the memorial but will catch up with the Kuzinich family and come together for a fond farewell. You will be sorely missed David. Best, PHIL CRAWFORD
