My deepest heartfelt condolences To David’s Family.I have a lot of fun memories of David and myself,school First Baptist Church.He is missed.
We are so saddened to hear of David’s passing. He had a sensitive and caring heart. The last time we spoke, the conversation was centered around his concern for his dear grandparents, Karns and Vi White. His wistful smile will always remain in my memory and I still called him “Davey Boy”. Our thoughts and prayers are for his grieving family. May God be with you all.
