David was my first love and my first date. We had a wonderful time sharing and growing up together in Junior High and High School. He was adventurous even back then with his miniture race cars that transformed into his motorcycles and anything with speed. We grew apart and got reaquainted 18 years ago and he came to apologize for not being truthful with me so many years ago. He wanted to make peace between us.
He was at one time, my soulmate. He shared his life and family stories with me and so loved you all.
I have lost a dear friend and love, but he shall always be in my heart. God bless you all.

Kenneth I am so sorry to hear of David's passing. I have wondered where you and David, Lynn and Glenn all went through the years. Hope all are well and doing good. May Jesus give you all comfort in your time of grief.

I can't explain how lucky I was to have had the pleasure of being his neighbor and friend. Although it was such a short time we shared and we had so much more to still share, he became my family immediately as he brightened my life and my son , Mark's life. I thank him for opening his heart to me and Mark. He is in our hearts.

I must admit that I did not see David and Carol as much as I should have or as often as I would have liked to. My favorite memories with them will always be on the boat with neighbors and friends, great music (Jimmy Buffett), a few drinks, many stories and lots of laughs. He was patient, kind, intelligent, and forever young at heart. We regret he is no longer with us but truly cherish all he left us with. God Bless you friend and Pirate. You have found your One Particular Harbor. Peace.

David was a loving person. He had the ability to give to others. Met his family from Texas only briefly, but the love came through immediately. He was special and will be missed.
