He was my Captain on the NLRFD at one time. I enjoyed working with him. A very humble Man of God. R.I.P. brother.

Uncle David was always an inspiration and example to me of how to live in Christ. He had a gentle, calm soul that made it very comfortable to be in his presence. What a reunion in heaven he is having! Aunt Rosetta and family, may God comfort you and yes, we will all be together again someday.

He was a good Captain -- always good to me and my family. I used him many times on his off-duty days for his sheetrock finishing skills including on my house. He knew the Bible well and was not afraid to live for God's kingdom.
