I think of my Spiritual Brother, especially when I reminisce back through the years of our days of being young musicians. David was a true music professional and an artist. He loved playing the bass. It was during that time in his life that we had met. Always positive, humble and respectful. I personally am honored to have had the opportunity to be known as one of his Friends and a musician comrade.
My deepest, sincerest condolences as always to the Family of My Spiritual Brother, "Mr. David Waddell."
May he continue to Rest Peacefully in Heaven.

To the Family of David Wadell. Please accept my deepest heartfelt condolences for your loss of my Spiritual, Musical Brother Dave. This truly comes as a tremendous shock for me. I have had the great honor to have known Dave for over four decades. We met as musicians and became good Friends and remained good Friends. Musically, he was truly a dedicated musician. And personally, I will always remember him as someone whom I considered as being my Friend. Farewell Brother Dave. My Spiritual Brother and Good Friend. Rest peacefully.....
