It's hard to believe twenty years have passed since you left us. I miss your laugh, smile, and love of life. You were not only my brother, but a dear friend. I wish you were here to see my kids growing up. My son Eden is so much like you. His love of music, gentle spirit, and yes his clumsiness. I know he would have adored you. He never met you, but he carries a picture of you in his wallet. You are always in my prayers and I am looking forward to the day I can embrace you again in the Lord's presence. Peace Dude. May eternal rest be granted unto you and may perpetual light shine upon you. Godspeed brother. Lots of love,
Andy, Eden, and Gabby

First, I would like to stress my deepest sympathy to Dana, whom I've had to pleasure of meeting only twice, and to the family of David. You may be wondering who I am I'm a friend of Heidi Wyma, we work toghether. I know that David is in a better place wathcing over all of his friends and family probably cracking a few jokes. I only met him twice, but I got the feeling that he was a really good person. So, to Dana and family stay strong keep your heads up and I'm sure he's in Heaven looking down smiling on everyone.

Dearest Dana, Uncle Rich, Aunt Anna, Sharon, Mike, Sherri, and their children, and all of David's family. I was so sad to hear about David. I always liked him for his easy going manner and good sense of humor. He was so friendly and helpful to everyone. We will truly miss him at our family functions. I'll never forget the way he served food at his own wedding and made sure everyone else was having a good time. May he be happy and living one big eternal party in heaven with our Lord and Savior. I'm sorry we couldn't make the funeral, but both Ken and I had to work. It was nice seeing you all at the wake though. Mom and Dad said it was very nice and that he had military honors. We love you all and have been praying for you nightly. David, Thank you for loving our cousin, Dana, and giving us all such fun memories. God bless you. Love, Ken, Marsha, and Christine

I spent most of my freshmen and a good part of my sophmore years at the Lynch house. David treated me just like a little sister. I saw him in April and he and Dana looked so good. He will be missed deeply and I know he is watching all of us. I love you all.

I used to live next door to David and Dana and have been a friend of the family for many years. What stands out most in my memories is how much David loved when i cooked, we had a connecting door in our apartment and he would just smell me cooking and come over and say "hey whatcha cooking, whatcha got there, how did ya make that, i gotta get a plate of that!" He always made sure to tell me how good everything was and i know sometimes it wasnt great but he would go on and on about it like i was some kind of master chef at Emeril's. He was a HUGE goof and i will miss him very much. My kids and myself spent every halloween with David and Dana, and he and Dana's brother Mike used to love to scare the neighborhood kids half to death, and even though he never had children, he was a GREAT UNCLE DAVID!

I would like to express my deepest sympathy to David's wife, family and friends. Dana if you need anything at all or just need a hug, I am only a phone call away. Love you Becky.

Davey



You have been a tremendous influence in my life. I will always treasure the time we spent together. This is not good bye as we will all meet in heaven some day and I find comfort in the the faith that you are with our loved ones that went before us enjoying and reminiscing about the times we had spent on earth and looking forward to an eternity in heaven with the Lord. We will all be strong here for each other and never take each other for granted until our time comes be with you again.



Love always

Dear David,



My big brother, my friend. I never thought when we said goodbye the night of your death that it would be final. When you hugged and kissed me goodbye and said "I love you Mary" I took for granted that it would not be the last time I saw you. I laughed so hard that last night and now the sorrow I feel matches the joy you brought to my life. I love you big brother.



Love forever,



Mary
