Sorry for your loss!
David was like one of my boys growing up.
I got to see him about 3 weeks ago, at a ball game.
When I got out if the car, he said " ma Rett, where are your cow bells?" That made me smile.
He will be miss!

David was a compassionate caring person. Always that awesome smile greeted you. Hearts hurt when we lose a child but I have to believe that the Lord truly needed another special Angel, and we know he is hugging his “Mooser”
