Davy was a friend to everyone. He will be sadly missed and was loved by everyone. My loving thoughts and prayers are with the whole family.
David was a character that if you met him once, you would never forget him. He was a very caring and sincere man who would go out of his way to help you if he could. He was there for me on many occasions that were difficult to get through and he followed up and made sure that I was doing okay. His sometimes bizarre sense of humor could take you aback at first but then he would immediately switch gears and become serious if needed. My wife and I will really miss him. He was one of the bright spots of our lives. We love you David, may you rest in peace and comfort! Dan and Glenda Wathen
