We are very sad at Dave’s passing, both for the family and for all who knew him. Dave was a wonderful man of God who loved everyone and wanted to make sure that they knew Jesus. We are sad that we only had the chance to know him for a year as neighbor and friend, but eternally thankful to Jesus that we will see him again. Our thoughts and prayers go to all.
Dave and I roomed together in college and he will be missed. Such a nice guy. We recently reconnected after not having talked to each other in a number of years. Glad we did. He is at peace now and much of that had to do with his faith. You are now with God and the world lost a good one. I am smiling up at ya buddy. I know you are smiling back.
I love you pa!

I live in California… i never met David in person, we met by a site on my space. we became friends for almost 5yrs. We always prayed for each other, and always shared the faith and love for our Father in HEaven. David last contact with me was back in june, 2012. He was my friend, my sweet far away friend. Our phone calls, our texts were always about encouraging one another, and how much we both loved our Lord so much. I will miss him so much. I remembered when he first called me to give me the news about the cancer, and how much we prayed, we cried. The miles aways from each others, even the difference time zones(3hr) didnt stopped us from comforting one another, either from his heartattack, his son, his dad, eddie, his pastor, his church. We will sing songs our songs of worship. My sweet brother, you are now in HIS arms, n the arms of Our FATHER, i will treasure always our conversations, all the letters.. emails, texts, and pictures we shared with one another. Our FAther in heaven had a purpose for us to know one another even in just a phone call away.. i luv you my sweet pea friend.. i see you in heaven my sweet friend. To his family, i am so sorry about the loss of your father, your son, your nephew, your brother, your friend.. my heart, my prayers go out to you.. kindly, Maria Jackson, San Diego, CA
My thoughts and prayers go out to all of Dave’s family. I am so humbled by his walk in life. I will always fondly remember Dave from the old neighborhood when we were just a bunch of silly kids. Rest in Peace Dave.
