To Susan, Jewelee, Josh, and Jonathan,
I want to express my heart felt sadness when I heard of David's passing. I always enjoyed his company and conversation. I am confident that the LORD will be with you through this time as we mourn together. But we also have a hope that the world does not share, that we will see David again. Take comfort in this as I know you have and may God bless you even with joy in this time.

If you need anything, let us know.

Hugs to everyone,
Ben, Lori, Christian, Taylor & Jacob

Susan, Jewelee, Joshua, and Jonathan one of the things I remember most is the trip Dave and some of us other guys took to Louisanna.We talked about many things, and had so much fun together. We all laughed a lot, it was awesome. I love you and your whole family.

Life is eternal, and love is immortal, and death is only a horizon; and a horizon is nothing save the limit of our sight. May you find comfort and Peace in the knowlege that David is just over the horizon in the arms of our Lord. Our Love and Prayers are with you all.

Today I pray for the entire Dickens family that they can find peace during this difficult time. I take comfort in knowing that David is watching over us and that he will keep a warm place for us in heaven until we have a chance to see him again. I also know that he is in good company in the presence of God as well as family and many friends. I will always remember David as a caring soul who was soft spoken and as someone who loved and cared for his family. May you rest in peace and know that we were blessed to have known you.
