David Bourne Obituary

David, cannot believe that we lost you a few years , but U knew that you were not in pain anymore. I do miss the conversations we at Pappys and the laughter. I miss you, please watch over all of us.

I can't believe so many years have passed since we lost David. I think of him often, and the rides we enjoyed. Two other of our riding buddies have gone to meet David, Angelo Sanchez and Chief Kenny. They are all missed and fondly remembered.

Gayle, So sorry about David. The only one who can give you true comfort is Jesus, so may He hold you in His loving arms and comfort you as no one else can do. Love you so much and praying for you.
Love,
Terry Dantzler Mixson, Ruffin, SC

R.I.P. my friend, i will miss you.

Gayle,
Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.
Chief Bourne rest in Gods arms until we meet again,

Gayle, so sorry to hear about David. You and the family are in my prayers.

To the Bourne Family
David and I went to high school and I knew him when he was called Crusher. Never understood the nickname because he was so kind and gentle. He was an honorable and compassionate man who always thought of others before himself. I will continue to keep your family in my prayers.
To my dear friend Crusher, thank you for being a wonderful friend, always knowing what to say to brighten someones day and setting an example for all us to give and to show compassion to our family, friends, neighbors and even strangers. Your broken body may be gone but your spirit will live on in the hearts of all those who knew and loved you.

You were always so much fun yet very serious about firefighting. Thank you for your service and unwavering dedication to the city and it's residents. RIP Chief. Jackie and I will have your family in our thouhts and prayers.

Gayle,
I am so sorry for your loss. David was a good man, we rode many miles together. He was a true American and a Patriot. He served his community with pride and was so proud of our country. He single handedly brought together the ride last year to remember those lost in the Twin Towers. I will never forget him, and it was an honor and a pleasure to know him and ride with him.
Godspeed David.

Gayle, May your Memories Bring You Comfort During your Bereavement.
God Bless You

Your loss is heaven's gain. David is permanently healed and in the arms of our Lord and Savior. My prayer is that He will take away your pain and give you peace. David, thanks for all the wonderful memories and for all the times we sat at Pappy's and just talked about life. You will be greatly missed.

Our fond memories of laughter, caring, and love for the fellowman, helping those in need were David's life and for this he will be remembered. Our Prayers and love to the family.Charlotte and Glenn Gillespie

Many memories of kindness, laughter, encouragement and the camaraderie will forever live in my heart. A true friend and wonderful Chief. You've earned your wings, it's time to soar and watch over us forever more. I know that I have one more Angel to watch over me. God Bless you, David Bourne.
