David's music was such a blessiing to me. For over a decade, I have been looking for a copy of his CD "In the Palm of His Hand." The copy he gave to me I cannot find. [email protected]

Dave was an amazing man. He was able to see the good in almost any one and encourage them to serve the Lord. I will always be grateful for how he helped me. I have not seen him for almost 10 years, but I thought of him often. He certainly had a profound impact on me.
I want to say to his family and friends how sorry I am to hear of his passing and I hope every one is doing well. I know he is with the Lord. He will never be forgotten.

I was blessed by David's music when I was in Hoboken at the HEFC. His joy, faith and beautiful music was an encouragement and will always be remembered. Heaven is now a better place with him there.

Hi Becky and Don. I well remember David's infectious laugh/giggle. He was a great friend. I gave him a few organ lessons at Graterford BFC many years ago. So gratified to see him love music. No (!) doubt, he is with Christ. Love to you both, CD
