David is a brother to me. We've grown up together. He teased me like a brother and I loved to listen for his whistling when we were working at church together. So many stories and memories. I love his smile and the twinkle in his eyes they, were contagious. The talent the Lord gave him was incredible and he used it for God's glory. He finished well. He was loved and will be missed.
