I love you Bubba. I am glad you are while again. RIP

Im so sorry 😢
I’m so sorry Marie, I am at a loss for words. Knowing he is with your parents now puts a little ease on the tremendous sadness that I feel for David, you and his children. I love you.
Without David I definitely wouldn’t be the person I am today. We spent a lot of our teenage years together and I had the pleasure of being a part of his amazing family. Marie was like a sister to me and Betty my second mom. I love them dearly. David & I definitely had our ups and downs throughout the years and boy do I have stories but we always remained friends. May you rest easy David and give your mom a kiss from me. I love you my friend.
May the peace which comes from the memories of love shared, comfort you now and in the days ahead
God be with you and help you through this difficult time. Please know that many are thinking of you.
Cindy and Greg Ludington
Through light and dark times, thank you for always being my friend.
