My sincere condolences to you Carol and I will keep you close in my thoughts and prayers. My family and I are thankful to have shared memories with David. Losing a father is one of the most difficult things to go through. Natalie is heart broken and said he was an outstanding man and how proud she was of him. Natalie said my father may have passed but his thoughts, hopes and dreams live on and will be in my heart forever.
