Thoughts & prayers to the family @ this sad time. Seeing this was saddening; David was a nice person (which is hard to come by these days). He was kind & thoughtful, & very understanding & supportive. He was great at his job. He helped me through a difficult time & years later his advice still carries with me. He is a great inspiration to many.
