God Bless you David and I KNOW you are resting in peace! Every time you came to the cable office to see your sister Joane, you always came back to my office to say hi and tell me about your day! Two weeks ago I cooked you a big pot of chicken & dumplins and brought them to you because it was one of your favorites! You gave me a BIG hug David..... I will never forget that day!

My condolences to the family and may God Bless you ALL!
