David was a wild man especially when driving. He lived life to the fullest. I went to school with him, spent days with him at Lake Norman and out in the woods riding motorcycles. He was a great friend and will be missed by all who knew him.

Terry,

I am shocked as the rest of us are about the news about David.

Although I never met him, through your conversations with me about him, I feel like I had some idea of what kind of great guy you married.

I am so sorry for your loss, and if I could ever do anything, I would count it a privilege.
