My deepest condolences to the entire family in this sad loss. David was an incredibly honorable and generous man who spread love to everyone around him. His life was a blessing to so many people. I will continue to lift you up in prayer in these difficult days of grief.
"Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Phil. 4:4-7
