Brynn and Jed, So very sorry for your loss. I just saw this when I popped onto David's page to see exactly which day his birthday was. I worked for your Dad and we were friends. He was so kind and always lifted and helped others. A brilliant attorney, too. I have so many fond memories of my years working for him. Deepest condolences to you, may he rest in peace. God Bless.

My deepest condolences to the children, partner and friends of David. I met David at Metro and we became good friends when he joined the Department of Access Services. I shall never forget his dedication and passion for the rights to transportation access by people with disabilities, specifically those who were blind or visually impaired. David was a brilliant attorney and was highly respected by the disability community he served at Metro, it was a pleasure to have known him. May your memories of David provide you comfort and ease the pain of your loss. Wishing you peace and blessings.

Joyce, Brynn & Jed, My heartfelt condolences on David's tragic passing. I had the pleasure of knowing David when he worked in Metro's Legal Dept. I can therefore appreciate that this painful family loss is also a great loss to the community that he served with such dedication. His is a life to be proud of, which should not be diminished by how abruptly he was taken from us. Sincere sympathy, Phill Staub
