We are remembering all the fun times we had with David and how much he loved life and loved his family and friends. We are comforted knowing he is now reunited in heaven with Starr, his parents, and his siblings in heaven. May God comfort us all with His love and peace knowing that one sweet day we will all be together again for all eternity.
