Trinity of Peoria, Ariz., Patrick Trinity of Manchester, N.H., Sean Trinity of Chichester, N.H., and a stepdaughter, Heather White of Chichester; one grandchild; five step-grandchildren; a sister, Diane (Trinity) Van Houten; a nephew and cousins.

David always made me laugh. He and Deb were there for me thru good times and bad. He would show me there was a positive side to anything negative. One of the kindest, most generous people I have ever known. David, I will miss you.

David was a very dear to my heart. He was my Daddy in every sense of the word. He would get me up and walk me to school every morning, I would walk to his work most afternoons & he always played with me and read to me at night before bed. I have no shortage of memories with him from when I was a child. I am very thankful for his kind heart and unconditional love.

David was a wonderfully kind person and had a wicked sense of humor. He and Deb opened not only their home but hearts to me when I moved out to Phoenix. You are surely missed by many. Rest in peace my friend.
