David was always so nice and got along with everyone. I met him because he was Rob Adair's neighbor and I was Rob's girlfriend. I also knew Dave Jr. for years before his passing. I hope all the grieve and sadness can pass so we can remember all the happiness and fun times we shared with David and his family. God Bless you
