I am so sorry to learn about the passing of David. I was fortunate and blessed to have David as an athlete at Thompson Junior High in Weatherford. He always was having "fun" in whatever endeavor he was involved in and his infectious good nature kept everyone at ease. He was a blessing in my life and will be missed.

I am very sad to hear of Dave's passing. He was a good person and will be greatly missed by all. I am still using the garage he helped build and can still see him helping set the trusses with his brother Steve...I remember it like it was yesterday

I'm so sorry to hear about Duke's passing. He was such a good guy. I worked with him many years ago and he taught me a lot about framing and construction. I will never forget the good times I shared with him.
