David A. Stephens

To Kathleen and family,
My deepest and most heartfelt condolence. I was lucky enough to become one of Dave's friends. I met him when we we're both young men at Ballands gym. Everyone there started as friends but slowly became family. Dave would come in proudly wearing his uniform. You could always see how he loved representing his country. Soft spoken but always ready to lend a hand wherever needed. We all shared stories of life, laughter, and sometimes sadness, but always caring for each other. If you have broken bread with someone then you truly are friends, if not you stay just an acquaintance. We we're all lucky to break bread with Dave. Always a family man, always caring, listening. He will be missed and thought of often. Godspeed my friend.
