David was one of my best friends my entire life and we considered each other brothers. We grew up across the street from each other, riding motorcycles, fishing at Lake Irena, and following Penn State Football. David was like a second son to my father Art and Betsy Snyder and ate meals with them regularly. I got to spend a few days with him right before he passed. I will always cherish the relationship we had.

David will be greatly missed. His insight into our Lord's mind and ways and his genuine love for his Christian brothers and sisters was uplifting, always helpful, and he was always willing to share what Father gave him. We know that today he is at peace and filled with joy. He's in that incorruptible and immortal body that will never fail him again. And I have no doubt he is still in service to our Father, making intervention for his family and the saints. Rest in Peace David, until that time comes when you return with Jesus as part of that great army. May his family and friends receive the comfort of the Holy Spirit as they heal from their great loss.

I met David through Shepards chapel via his best friend Michael Meza. He loved the Lord dearly and had a wealth of biblical knowledge. Often when he spoke he was the biggest brightest light in the room. You'll be missed my friend, until we meet again...
