I haven't seen David since he was a boy, but I have fond memories of that sweet little boy who used to go to the Renaissance Faires, even a long car trip to Arizona and back, with his mother, me, and my son. He was a self contained boy with very particular interests and a distinctive way of expressing himself. I wish I had had the chance to know the adult David! My heart goes out to his family!

I knew Dave from work at Cascade Die Mold. He was a very nice & polite guy. It always blew my mind that he wore cowboy boots to work. He would say, they're the most comfortable shoes I have. He has been missed after he left work & now will be forever. My condolences go out to the family.
