I had many pleasant meetings with David at the Central Arkansas Utility Club as a member from Entergy Arkansas. David was a very nice person and easy to get along with.
So sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in the words spoken at Revelation 21:3,4 “With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away".
Martha, I just heard of your loss, I am truly sorry that you have lost your spouse. My heart goes out to you, and I will keep you in my prayers
