Addison of Pensacola; brothers Benjamin of Gulf Breeze and Stephen of Atlanta and their families; aunts, Sally Currie and husband James, Sue King and husband Larry, Mary Addison-Lamb and husband Mick; uncle, Richard Booker and wife Diane and all their families.

I sadly just learned of David's passing. We spent many summers in Maine together as kids riding our bikes, playing at the club house, swimming at the sandbar, raiding Harbor Ice Cream and exploring Long Cove Point. He was such a joyous and fun individual and I will always remember him fondly. My deepest condolences to all his family and friends.

With kind regards,
Jenny Chase (or "Ginny" has David used to call me)

I feel so alone with out my David. A friend of ours gave me some pictures of Dave and myself at the pool here in Charlotte she also gave me a video of us dancing in the rain that I didn't know she took.

Im blessed beyond measure not only to have shared the passed two almost three yearsof my life with David I but Its soooo amazing to watch him play his guitar and smile so so big .Priceless!!!! Until I see you again my love , forever Teresa

I heard a song tonight that I would like to share with all of you that knew and loved David. It's a song by Luke Bryan entitled 'Drink A Beer'. Listen to the song. I miss David so very much and someway this song gave me peace. Love to you all.

David and I shared the last couple of years together. My world will never be the same with his passing. Dave would want all of us to remember him in the words and music that he loved. It's hard to know how to navigate through today without him but I hold on to the memories and the love that we shared. I know that he is at peace and I will see him again one day so TURN UP THE VOLUME, SMILE AND REMEMBER HIM! God's grace be with you all. Love, Teresa

To Bill and Ellen, my prayers are with you and your family. Please keep in touch. I have David's phone now - 954.663.8673.

The love of a cousin is like no other! They are your first friends and your forever friends! We had so much fun growing up and I wish we could have been together more in our adult lives! David, I have always held a special place for you in my heart! You were like a little brother to me! I have always loved you, thought about you, and prayed for you. It hurts my heart knowing I will never see that amazing smile and hear that intoxicating laugh again! It helps me to know you are at peace and safe in the hands of our God! I will always love you!!! Cheers to you cuz!!! Ride the waves to the sound of beautiful music!!!

Seeing David's smiling face and reading about his life is so heart breaking. I hope that God's promise to bring lost loved ones back to life in a future earthly paradise will comfort you and help you through this difficult time.

There are no words to express Dave as a person. He was one of a kind! We loved him and he loved back. I hope he has finally found peace. Now, he can play his guitar and sing as LOUD as he wants. May God bless your soul Dave.

I can still see the moment I met Dave over some thirty odd years ago, he and I basically grew up together and were still close. I'll never forget you and just how special you made my life and those around you. Rest well Dave.
