Our thoughts and prayers are with you. David has always been one of our favorite customers. He is not only considered a customer, but a friend. We could always count on him for a crazy joke or a laugh when he called. I will never forget the day he received the “mouse” we sent him. The all time prank! He is loved and will be missed greatly!

David and I worked together at Ryder in Durham for many years. I left the company in 1997, but always remember Big Dave for his humor and great hunting stories. I ran into an old friend today and was asking about some of the old crew and he told me about David’s illness. Just unbelievable and I’m genuinely sorry for your loss. All of my best regards to you and your family.
