I was in Industrial Arts class with David . I was a sophomore and David was a freshman. Our instructor was Mr. Roy Woodside and I well remember the day that Dave got his hair singed in the shop furnace !
And I very much remember his wife Donna , who always was a sweet and pretty girl. I believe she had a cousin named Alvin .
My prayers are with the family . So sorry for your loss.
