David saw so much in me that I could not. He was/is and will always be so special to me. He gave love so unconditionally. He shared stories of his life that were filled with great pain and heartbreak and his light just kept shinning. When I think of him, I feel honored that he chose me to be a part of his life. I know that anyone who knew him felt the same!

David was a former neighbor at 410 N. Rossmore ave in Los Ángeles. He lived across the hall from me. I kept in touch with David over the years especially around the holidays. I will miss him.

David and I were neighbors for a number of years beginning in 1994 and I stayed in touch with him even after my move within the same area for years thereafter. His wit and warmth will long be remembered. He had an unmatched zest for life and a connected exuberance for it. God bless his precious soul and my deep sympathy to his brother and sister.
