David and I went to high school together; and also lost touch afterwards. I remember him as be very sweet and intelligent, and of course, good looking. My heartfelt prayers to his family.

I also am a former classmate of David's. I remember one fellow class mate saying of him that he was the only person he knew that had the brains of a genius and the physical ability of an Olympic athlete. Our hearts go out to his family at this time. May God bless you and keep you close to his bosom at this time.

I am David's cousin on his mom's side, daughter of his uncle, C. Raymond Shaw, Sr., Jane S. Glass. I remember David as a child when his family would visit our family, and we would all play together. I was so sorry to hear of his passing. My sympathy to the entire family in this time of grieving. My dad had a special affection for his sister, Ellen S. Schrock, and her children.

I graduated with David from Appomattox County High School in 1970. Unfortunately he did not attend any of our class reunions so I have not kept in touch. I have fond memories of him from high school. It seems he had a very good life and I am happy for that. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

David and I went to high school together. I was on my way to a class gathering when I heard of his death. I remember him as highly intelligent, quite good looking, very introspective, and a young man who seemed to walk to the beat of a different drum. It is nice to see that he was a fellow educator. I remember Burt, Ann and Mary Ellen. My regards to the family.
