I knew David for more than 50 years. In our teens I lived in the Hunt home for a period while my family was overseas. His Mom and Dad were like second parents to me.
I regret we grew apart for so many years however so thankful we reconnected recently and were able to visit and talk often. I wish it could have been longer.
David, when you get home tell your Mom & Dad (Pug and the Big Indian) that Tommy says "hey".
Johnette you continue in my thoughts and prayers.
You hang in there girl.

I knew David for more than 50 years. In our teens I lived in his home for a period while my parents were overseas. His Mom and Dad were like second parents to me for years. I regret our having grown apart for so many years but am thankful/grateful we reconnected a few years ago and were able to see each other and visit often. David when you get home be sure and tell your Mom & Dad (Pug and the Big Indian) that Tommy says "hey".
You'll be missed my friend.
Johnette, you continue to be in my thoughts and prayers. Hang in there girl.

Johnette, our prayers are with you and the family. David was almost a brother but definitely was a wonderful cousin. I remember growing up around him and I also remember the wonderful time we had as a family together when we visited with you years ago. Will always remember him as a true friend and a great man. I am so blessed to have known him.
