Dear Uncle David, In this life I didn’t get the chance to know you well but I did like your gentle yet independent spirit. I knew you to be generous and thoughtful. We still remember that one Christmas you bought my brothers and I a beautiful train set and played with us. It was awesome! In reading your obituary, I also realized how much like you my brothers grew up to be. I believe you would have really liked making music with them or cooking a great meal. May we meet again one day in Heaven. God comfort your family who misses you so much.
