Hi D:
I had my 70th birthday party in Jamaica last month and although it was fun and we all had a great time, I did think about both you and Larry and how I wished that you both could have been there. We miss you, but never forget you!!

Ken and I miss you every day ‘D’, but rest assured you are always close in our hearts. Your three ‘girls’ (Ms. Chin, as you loved to call her, Traci & Kelli)are doing OK and all your beautiful grandchildren.
Me, I miss our talks, our silliness and horsing around my ‘Brother’ or as I nicknamed you,Crazy Rabbit ‘ .
You are never forgotten and it seams your brother Geoff every now and then will remind me that you instructed him to continue the harassment
Love you forever ‘D’

A year has passed David but you will never be forgotten, every time that someone or something from our young days comes to mind or happens the memories of you always brings a smile and a silent tear, thank you for being a part of those good memories.

March 5, 2015

The year has flown by and my world is so very different without my "D". Here I am trying to figure out stuff and make decisions without my best friend and confidante. Our life was so simple, dealing with stuff one by one, and somehow managing to stay focused and positive. Here I am in a new city, a new home, a new chapter of life, anxious to feel settled. I wish you were here to hug our new grandson, he is precious and it would have been such a joy to see you in the grandpa role, sharing your wisdom, courage and humor. I thank God for you, my gift of a wonderful hubby and friend, and am consoled knowing that you are smiling and looking out for all of us. A finer person I have never met and your love lives on in my heart.

March 5, 2015

Cannot believe it has already been a year. Miss you so much, your smile, your positive outlook, your contagious laughter. I know you are looking down at us from heaven and smiling at your grandson. Angel David continue to guide us my friend. Love and miss you lots

March 5, 2015

Time....doesn't stop.....each day, hour, minute is precious....as are the precious memories forever treasured by your loved ones left behind. We are richly blessed to believe in eternal life, so David has just gone ahead. Forever missed, always loved....you live on in hearts & minds, & in your first grandchild. Special love to Nancy, also to Traci & Kelli

David aka"Crazy Rabbit" your cousin Ken and I miss you very much!
It's hard to believe that it has been a year already since your left us.
We miss all the fun things we did, the times we chatted, the horse playing because we alway saw each other as siblings. Ken misses you and misses his Star Trek partner. Nancy and your girls are doing well and you would be proud of them. Your grandson is adorable and very cute' he is surrounded by love.
You are missed

Uncle D..life without you will never be the same. However we bask in all the many memories we share. You are gone but not forgotten and we know you are looking down on us all with all your love. Tyler will not know Grandpa in person, but he will definitely know him in spirit. Uncle D we miss you. Nancy, Traci and Kelli all my love and continued support. Blessings
