I remember David best, with his big fuzzy Dog when the family lived near my grandmothers home in Old Town. My condolences to the family!
I remember his dog too.
Was always good seeing David – birthday party when we were kids and getting to see him while I worked at Dollar General. Also a joke or two and we shared our birthdays together ! Praying for peace and good memories!
I went to school with David. He was super sweet to me. He always had a smile and a sparkle in his blue eyes. Prayers for the family.
Dave my friend, your smile will be remembered and the stupid times we spent as kids, climbing in old barns, bottle rocket fights in Sunny Side, making Mrs. Miller mad every day in fifth grade… the list goes on and on. As we age, more and more of us will be missed. Thanks for the memories and prayers for your family.
David was friends with my brother Scott, so he was around a lot. He was the cutest little boy I’d ever seen. I’m praying for you all! Love you Beth!😘
