My deepest condolences to the lambert family, so sorry for your loss. I met david working for Coca-Cola he was a hard worker and always called to see if I needed help. I would ask him if he had any plans for the weekend. He would always say family time, cooking, gardening and driving his golf cart. And shiner beer. He was a kool dude RIP DAVID

David was my friend, brother and an influence for good in my teenage years. Always a level, measured and solid thinker we often needed. His common sense welcome by wild teenagers going too far for a blast. David holds a special place in my heart as a big brother type defender. I´ve missed time with David that I now regret. I kick myself for missed opportunities to see David. I regret denying he was actually sick. Love you and RIP David!
Much love and prayers to Amy, Sue, Terry, Michael Bradley, Tatum and Cathy, Bobby and his family. Scott
