To David's father and mother, his fiance, his brothers and sisters, his lifelong friends, and to David's son, I am so incredibly sorry about your loss. I didn't know David well, but the couple of times that I have talked to him, he was the funniest, most down to earth, and kind-hearted individual. From those interactions, he seemed like the type of person who put everyone else before himself, and couldn't help but care deeply for those around him. Although a beautiful soul was taken too early, he was someone who created a better, brighter world than it was before. I can't even begin to understand your situation now, but please know that I will pray night and day for David and his family. I will pray that David is resting peacefully, and I will also pray for the longlasting peace and happiness of his family and friends. Again, my sincerest condolences.
