Linda and Paul,



I would like to express my absolute deepest condolences for your monumental loss. David was a great guy and had one the greatest senses of humor of anyone I have ever met. I cannot ever recall a time when I was with him in which he didn't make me laugh, and I will truly miss the times we spent together. May God bless you and give your family strength in this time of hardship and loss.

David was one of my older cousins and we all adored him. He was the nicest person I have ever met, just like his parents. He was always there for anyone who needed help or just a smile. He always made my family and me laugh and smile. He will be greatly missed and I pray for his whole family. We are a strong family and we will stick together
