Memories and Condolences

Not sure what to say?

JoAnne, Collins and Care Bear,
I am so very sorry about David. He was always so kind and thoughtful and playful with all of us, especially Mama. She really did love him and he knew it. She knew that if she needed something, all she had to do was say so and David took care of it. In my wedding video, there he is taking our wedding cake into the reception hall and he didn't drop it either. We have so many special memories, too many to list, but know that we cherish each one of them. We know that when Mama saw him as he came through those big doors of heaven, she welcomed him with open arms. They're probably having a right good time at this very minute. The pain and hurt are strong right now and nothing will take that away, but know that we are here for you if you need us. We love all of you. RaeRae, Laura and family, Timmy and family, and Mel

My Wife and I are sorry to hear about your loss. I worked with David at Wholesale and He has always been a very nice guy. He always took the time to answer any questions I had and I enjoyed talking to him because even though he was busy he never made you feel that way. Super nice guy we will miss him, but will also be at peace knowing He is in a better place now.
