Dear Cheryl and family, We were so sorry to hear of David's passing. He was a great husband, father and friend. We know he is in Heaven and we will pray for God to be with you and your family at this time. We will always remember what good neighbors you were to us on Maidencreek Road. God bless you.

I met Dave when we sat next to each other in Legal Research and Writing. We talked about so many things, but he spoke most animatedly about his wife. He was so proud of Cheryl. Dave was an inspiration-strong in the Lord, and a hard worker. I was privileged to know him. My heart breaks for his family.

Did not matter if you were meeting David for the first time or every time thereafter,you knew immediately he was a man of God that led his life following the scriptures. He was smart,caring,generous and fun loving. He loved his church profession & extended family but most of all his wife and children. He left us way too soon but leaves a memorable legacy that will never be forgotten.

Words cannot express the saddness and grief we have for Dave's sudden passing and for the loss for the family. We were blessed with having him as a neighbor prior to his recent move and he would do anything for you. We enjoyed our chats and watching him with his family. He was an amazing husband, father and friend. Anyone that had him as part of their lives was blessed. Prayers and blessing for the family during this difficult time.

David was very good Sunday School teacher. He loved his family and his Church. He will be missed. I remember sharing a New Year's Eve with his family at the Bracy home.

David stood beside me as a brother in Christ during one of the toughest battles I've ever experienced in standing for truth. I am eternally grateful for his support and commitment, but also his testimony of Godliness and dedication to the cause of Christ. To know David is to be blessed. Words fail me in a moment like this, but please know we are standing with you in love and prayer. In Christ, Gerald

Words cannot explain the feelings of grief that I have and how sorry I am to hear of David's passing but I must say that the feeling of grief is followed by the immediate feeling of happiness knowing that he is now with his lord and savior. I had the privilege of knowing David for 8+ years and working alongside him. We fought together and laughed together and more importantly we prayed together. From the Jordan family to the Crossett family I send our condolences.

We are so deeply grieved by David´s sudden passing. We only knew him for a short time, but he made our entire family feel like we were the most special people. He was kind, compassionate, generous, and so much fun to be around. He made a huge impact on the lives of everyone who was blessed to know him, and he will never be forgotten. We praise God that he is in heaven with our Savior, yet mourn this incredible loss. We are here for the entire Crossett family should they ever need anything.
