We’ve known David since the nineties and enjoyed all of our trips and times together. He was, no doubt, a good, honest and fun man, interested in the world and people around him. David will be missed.

Franki - So sorry to hear about your husband. It’s obvious your time with him was just too short and that you will miss him so much. Cherish those memories and know that it will take time - maybe a long time - to be able to feel the real comfort those memories bring. This is such a difficult time - it may be a long while before you feel “normal” again. Know that it is natural to feel like that. Be patient - it will come.
Please know your NLRHS Class of ‘69 classmates, and most especially those who have also lost their spouses, are keeping you in our thoughts and prayers. Sending healing love, Jan Greider Weiss

We are deeply saddened at the loss of our dear friend. David was kind, giving and loyal. We learned from him how to be unselfish, available and willing to give of ourselves. No words can express how much we will miss our dear friend. We love you Franki. We send loving thoughts and prayers to you and all your family.

Prayers of Peace and comfort to the family. David always had kind and uplifting words for me, asked about my sons, and a genuine person. I was present at the convalidation service recently and so happy for both David and Franki. God's grace and peace be with us all. Amen
