February 22, 2025

I worked with David at Sears many years ago. He was always fun to be around. Lost track of him after I moved to Austin and never knew how to reach him. sorry to hear he has passed away. I pray that the Lord would comfort his family and watch over them. Ed Tello, I will try to attend his funeral at Ft Sam to say goodby to a fellow veteran.
