I am very saddened by the loss of an excellent man and devoted servant of Christ. I met David when I was a missionary speaker at St. John’s in Bakersfield.David was always encouraging and interested in our work. It was always clear to me that he loved people and loved Jesus and his kingdom.I know he is warmly embraced by his Savior.Now his absence is deeply felt.I don’t like the grammatical transition from present to past tense.Just a short time ago we could say, “David is gentle. David is kind. David is generous. David is caring.What happened many generations ago on craggy hill changes what we can hope for today. Well before he made the long journey to the cross, Jesus said to Martha, who was grieving her lost brother… “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?” “Yes, Lord,” she replied, “I believe that you are the Messiah, the Son of God, who is to come into the world.” (John 11)Jesus said to David, “Because you believe in me you will live even though you die. I am your resurrection and your life.”David is a new creation. In Christ, he is clothed with the righteousness of God.That leads us to a great hope. David still is gentle. David is still kind. David is still generous. David is still caring.This is truer than we can ever imagine because his flaws, his flesh and his weaknesses are now perfected.I look forward to seeing you and embracing you again David.

Dave was a colleague. It’s a great loss. He was such a kind person. He was always genuinely ready to help. I will always remember him.

Dave was in my cohort through Seminary. HIs attitude was always positive and his energy was 110%. But what was so refreshing was that his faith in Jesus and his love for the Lord overshadowed everything he said and everything he wrote. Dave became a brother to me in more ways than one. He’s the real deal because of Christ’s life in him. Until we meet again…

David was 2 years older than me. I knew him from both school and Boy Scouts. I looked up to him. He was my patrol leader and was great with the younger Scouts. I remember fun times with him and John on weekend camp outs and summer camp. As a young teenager Scout leader he exhibited integrity and honor. His maturity was beyond his age. Even so, He could come up with some funny pranks. I have a lot of fond memories of David. I am sorry for your loss. May God grant you peace and strength in this time.

Great loss to all of us. Dave was an excellent human being and we feel blessed to have known him so closely all these years. Dave was a thorough gentleman, he will be greatly missed. He was a great influence for my daughter to learn Piano. I will always remember his love for spicy Indian food. May you all have strength to fight the loss.

I first met Dave when he came to work for Gulf Oil at the Warren Building in Tulsa in 1982 as a computer programmer. After a few weeks, it was apparent to me that Dave was conscientious, hard-working, ambitious, very bright and mature beyond his years. I’m so sorry to hear of his passing but so glad his life had so many blessings.

One of life’s true gentlemen who touched the hearts of everyone he passed. Just one of the warmest people I have known who just adored his family and I loved hearing all the stories of his grandchildren, about Kathy and her love for shopping and life itself and all his much dearly loved children. No one could love his family more than Dave and just so very proud of everything they did and stood for. I am so sorry for you loss and thinking of you all.

Such sadness over this news. Dave was an amazing, kind, caring, considerate gentleman with a love like no other for his family. It was an honour to have known him and have him as part of our life. May you all find the strength you need for today and the future by knowing he will be with the lord.
