So sorry for your loss Denise prayers for your family
Dave was a lifelong childhood friend. He was a thoughtful low key guy you could always depend on. We grew up together in North St. Louis, attended the same Elementary school and High School. We even joined the Army at the same time and subsequently attended and graduated from Washington University, thanks to the G.I. bill. Years later, he joined me as a member of The Vietnam Veterans of America, Chapter 1028. He was a proud Veteran. He wore the uniform. He did his duty. He sacrificed his youth and endured the separation from loved ones. He served his country with selfless devotion. Now his battles are over. He is gone but not forgotten; for he will always have the undying gratitude of those he served, and the respect of those who served with him. I salute you my friend. May you rest in eternal peace.
