He's somewhere in the sunlight strong,
His tears are in the falling rain,
He calls me in the wind's soft song,
And with the flowers he comes again.
Yon bird is but his messenger,
The moon is but his silver car;
Yea! Sun and moon are sent by him,
And every wistful waiting star.

I'm so sad to just learn of David's passing. I went to Hugger and Hart with him (and rode the same bus) but moved to another school district after 7th grade and never saw him again. He was such a smart kid, funny too. It sounds like he had a very full, if short, life. He certainly made an impression, even at a young age. I wish I could have known him as an adult too. I'm so sorry that you lost him so young.
July 3, 2015 we celebrate David all day and late into the evening. This was a David style day with wonderful friends and outdoors for easily 24 hours! John and Paul swimming, music, boating to Detroit and back, lots of food and drink and a late night Bon fire into the wee hours. Kyle with his lighted frisbee made the back yard come alive! We all love the memories and miss you, so much. Miss your smile and hugs.
David I only knew you as a baby and toddler, but even then you were so full of joy of life that I find it difficulty to imagine the world withou you in it.
