David was a really good musician and shared many of his secrets with me. He taught me a lot about playing the guitar. I will always remember him as my husband-in-law, since he and my wife were married in another life. We both will remember him always as a warm and caring individual who always was looking for a way to make your day better. It is with a deep regret that we are unable to attend his funeral, but our hearts and prayers will be there even though we cannot. May God bless the family and watch over them. To Steve, David's Brother, we would like to say, "We think of you often and appreciate all that you did for David. We would love to hear from you and catch up on old times.
