To the Milton Family;

My Pastor once said that to make an impact in ones life is not being remembered for who you are, but what you have done. I'am very blessed to have an opportunity to be a part of Mr. Dave's life. In just a short time,he imparted much Godly wisdom into my life as he operated Godly principles. He will be remembered always! Praying comfort and strength in God in the time of bearevement for the family.

On behalf of the membership of The Central Mosque of Charleston, we want to extend out deepest and sincere condolences to the family of Mr. Dave Milton.
From the outstart, when I encountered Mr. Milton, he was cleaning up the court yard of the Mosque. We always found him to be kind and absolutely considerate. He displayed an admiration for the upkeep of the Mosque.We always had a mutual respect for one another. Mr. Milton was
what we call in Islam - an absolute wonderful neighbor!
When I learned of the passing of Mr. Milton, I was personally devestated. He was so kind towards me, the members of the Mosque, and was always professional.
We loved Mr. Milton and we can only pray for his family during this difficult time.
May Allah (God), bless Mr. Milton and may the Milton family stay strong during this difficult time.
