Dearest Brother- David, My how you are already missed! You are constantly on my mind, as I contemplate what plans God may have in store for you. I surely wish you and I could have had a nice, long visit before your "leaving." You were probably never aware of just how many people's lives you touched during your lifetime. You brought joy into the lives of many. Your smiling face, your sense of humor, and your energetic laugh- these are but a few of the things we'll miss by not having you nearby. I know these past few years have been very hard- as you have dealt with the frustrations of deteriorating health. I understand this experience all too well, myself. We'll all miss having you here in person for now- but we look forward to seeing you again, when we too- hope to return to live with our Father in Heaven. I love you dear brother, and miss you.
Your brother, Dan
