My prayers go out to all of David,s family. David was my friend for 47 Years. We are marines and always will be. Always Faithful.
My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
So sorry for your loss
To Mary and the family: I'm so sorry to hear of Mr. David's passing. He was a good man with a heart for the veterans. His work through Post 2259 was certainly recognized and appreciated. Though I only got to know him as one of the karaoke DJ's, I enjoyed the time I got to spend in his presence. My thoughts and prayers are with each of you during this difficult time. In Christ's love, Eric

David was one of Sammy's first cousins but more than that he was a treasured friend. We will all miss bumble bee. He had such a contagious laugh and hilarious sense of humor. We had some really fun times over the years . We just praise God that David had come back to his Savior and we all know he is with Jesus right now . Rest in peace and we will be looking forward to seeing you again some day. To the family just celebrate and know he is smiling down without anymore pain!! Love to all, Sammy and Charlotte Wilkerson
