David was our familys paperboy and we all loved him. He was my friend we all would hang around the same group of kids and everyone loved him. David was loved by me and many of the people who I grew up with. I loved him for his kindness, his ability to find something funny in all things. He was always happy while hanging around my house when we were teens. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

Chelsey & Jason,
It is very sad to hear of the loss of your dad. He was always warm and open for a friendly chat when I would be puttering around the building or in his apartment. He was a good man and neighbor. He was very proud of you both.
