Mary Jane, Mike, Tim and Patricia,



I will remember David always with a happy heart...dirt clods being tossed in the back yard, playing with the Legos on the back porch, sitting out under the street light on a warm summer night and just talking. Through the tough times, I hope your own happy memories can ease the pain, and know that David will be missed but not forgotten.



Love to you all...Pat

David was my first supervisor when I joined the Presnell Family more than 10 years ago. Right away I knew he was intelligent, creative, lively, and outgoing. Working with him was both an education and an adventure. His life and energy are gone from this world too soon.
