David was a good neighbor and friend. I have a beautiful cross that he made for Sacred Heart Auction and he made 3 intimidating nails for my shop window. Emily's fondest memory is she and Addie stealing his olives out of his drink. We miss you as neighbors and everyone who knew him will miss seeing him out watering his trees.
God Bless

Betty, I am so sorry to read that David has passed. He was always a kind and friendly classmate and friend. I loved his Persimmon Forge work...as many have, I'm sure. As one widow to another, "be strong and brave" !
