David was a true gentleman, honest and trustworthy, unpretentious, and friendly. It is said that you can measure a man by the size of the things that makes him angry. David was always in control, personally and professionally. He gave from his heart, modest and knowledgeable. His smile was genuine. His advice well thought out and sound. As all who knew him would agree, it was easy to like David from the first handshake. He will be missed.
David, Rest in PEACE.
