Dear Cheryl and family,

Our hearts go out to in this difficult time. I have wonderful childhood memories of Cousin David when my mom would take us to the "city". He was a warm and gracious person who always made you feel comfortable and welcomed in his world. We wanted to be there with you and the families on this day, but we are at a standstill with a tremendous amount of blowing and drifting snow. Please accept our condolences and know that we care. Love to you and all.
