David, you were always a sweetheart. Remember the time you got even with Pam. Lol. Uncle Butch teaching you how to repair the boat motor. Love you always and miss you much, Aunt Chris.

Our memories of you, Betsy, and David are some of our most treasured teaching experiences. David was simply a pure heart. His smile and goodness emanated from him, and the two of you together were a force. I still remember his wonderful laugh and positive attitude. He was a special man and apparently you both created a beautiful family. We are deeply sorry but know that he is still in our hearts too. It is our honor to remember him. Much love to you and your family, Roz and Ed Foy

Dear Betsy and family,
We just heard about the loss of wonderful David. We remember his infectious smile and loving personality as an integral part of our "young" lives. We are honored to have been a small part of his education. Our love and thoughts are with you.

My deepest sympathy to his entire family. Richard Blais,CDR USCGR

I am so sorry to learn of David's passing - he had just joined our retreat group a few years ago and I must admit that I had not gotten much of a chance to know him. I offer my most heartfelt condolences to his family and friends and will pray for the repose of his soul and in thanksgiving for his life among us.

God the creator and redeemer of all the faithful, grant to the soul of Your departed servent David the remission of all of his sins, that he may obtain the pardon he has always desired. Through Christ our Lord. Amen

Eternal rest grant to him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May he rest in peace. Amen

May the angels lead him into paradise; may the martyrs come to welcome him and take him to the holy city, the new and eternal Jerusalem. May choirs of angels welcome him and lead him to the bosom of Abraham; and where Lazarus is poor no longer may he find eternal rest.

May saints and angels lead him on, escorting him where Christ has gone. Now he has been called to come to the peace of Abraham and to the supper of the Lamb, to the glory of the blessed, and to perpetual light and rest.

May his soul and the souls of all of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen
