  2. Monica G says:

    My sincere condolences to your family. I know it’s not easy to deal with at this moment. May God “who comforts us in all our trials” (2 Cor 1:4) comfort you and your family at such a difficult time. I know Jehovah God will help you to endure because He invites us to approach Him in prayer, to pour out our heart to him. (Psalm 62:8) Please find comfort in knowing that God understands your  grief and He cares for you  (1Peter 5 :7).

  3. Ray and Cheri Witz says:

    Our deepest sympathies go out to this family. We were very close friends in past years, but they all hold a special place in our hearts.

  4. Dennis Schulte says:

    To the family…I did not know David, but as a fellow musician, hobby cook, and a retired drywaller, I pray for the God given strength you need in your time of mourning.

    I trust God has a special place for those who create and share their talents with others, especially music.

    God’s blessings,

    Dennis
