Uncle Phil, Aunt Pam, Eric... David was so very grateful for your love and support. The last time I saw him, we were sitting on Grandma's porch talking and enjoying the afternoon sunshine, it was a happy day and one that I will always remember. There are so many good memories that we as a family can keep in our hearts and share with each other. Together we are strong and I am here for you.
