Dear Brad,Georgia and Family,

There are never the right words to say to a grieving family but what I can say is that he will be greatly missed by my three kids, Timothy,Katie,and Ginny and myself. He will be remembered by my son for Dave taking him camping with his buddy Austin,he always had a blast camping. Over the eight years that I have known him he has always taken life and lived it to his fullest. My heart goes out to all of you. You raised a son that had such a big heart.I saw him as a great father who loved his son more than anything. He will always be remembered.

Dear Brad, Georgia & Family,

I didn't get to know David as a young man, but knew him as a child and I know that the great love that the Newton/Holmblad/Wheeler family shares made him a wonderful human being and Father and that was truly evident at his service today, please find comfort in knowing what a great person he was. I wish you all great peace and comfort in God's loving embrace.

To The Newton’s and Extended Family,

Words seem inadequate to express how I feel.

In searching my heart for the right thing to say I realized what I wanted to really say was

Thank-you for being the special family you are.

Thank-you for the wonderful times spent together; the dinners around Mom Lavonne’s table, the card game’s, the camping trips, the cookies in the cookie can.

The get-together’s at Brad and Georgia’s house by Gillman Park in Ballard.

The hundreds of times the Dad Lud drove me to church with the rest of the kids.

Thank-you for always being there for me in the dark times of my life, and showing me by example how a family stick’s together when thing’s get tough.

Thank-you for loving each other and sharing it with me.

I know David is proud of his family they are remarkable people.

I Love you all very much.

Dearest Brad, Georgia, Jonathon and Rachael,

In ways big and small your Son and Brother changed our world and left it a better place, touching too many people to ever be forgotten.
