Mr David was a very kind man. When I worked at the Dollar general off western Ave he came up there quite often and was always pleasant and one of my favorite customers. So sad to hear he has passed. Go rest high on that mountain Mr Davi, for your work on earth is done. May the Lord be with his family in these days ahead.

Just found out about David and I’m in shock! I am praying for the entire family, that you may know peace during this difficult time. I worked with David for many years. He was 100 % dependable and could do just about anything. He was a great problem solver and led many a crew to success in everything he did. He was well liked and respected by everyone he knew. Rest in peace brother. You will be missed.

My sweet daddy … as it seems so unreal to me that this is happening, I’m trying to be the strongest of all just like you would expect from me. I am so thankful to be your daughter and thankful for you being my dad ! As a baby to a grown woman , I’ve always known I had the BEST FATHER/DAD any girl could ask for. I’m praying for everyone’s life you have touched and all the people you have impacted for peace and comfort in this time . I love you dad … I’ll see you later !
