I was so saddened to hear about David. I was an acupuncture client of his when he was at Professional Therapeutic Massage in Colchester. He helped me with a neck/back issue. He was a gentle and knowledgeable being with a warm and easy demeanor, always easy to smile. His passion for helping others through his healing was a gift. Although he's left this physical world too early, he probably helped more people in his shortened life time than many do with what we've come to consider a full life. May peace find its way into your hearts.

Knowing David not only as a student of ours at the Lake Erie College of Osteopathic medicine, but also as a person, I became aware of his love for life, passion for the healing arts and great desire for learning. It was a pleasure to get to know David, and spend the time with him that I did. He was a special guy and will be missed by many whose lives he touched in special ways.
