Dear Josie & Family,
I am so very sorry to hear of David´s passing. Will always cherish the wonderful memories of our JIHS years. "FUN" was an ever present part of David´s demeanor. While reminiscing, I thought I´d share a quick story with you. Donna, my sister, & several friends were in the Library when Donna´s hard contact lens popped out of her eye. David announces, "Don´t anybody move!" You could not hear a pin drop. With that announcement, David steps back & we all hear a "BIG" crunch!
Sadly, the "Rams to State in `68" football team (#22) is leaving us, but growing in Heaven. God bless them all & God bless you, Josie, during this sad time.
With heartfelt sympathy,
Arleen Bell Palmer
