I never was lucky enough to meet him, but his wife, Denise was my good college friend. It's been a long time since we hung out together, but I have thought of you and your family often. Your parents were so good to me! I got to eat Fila mignon that your Mom prepared. When I got sick, your Dad put camphor on my throat and tied it up for me with a soft cloth. I still love you and hope you are well! My condolences for your loss.

Oh my God, I just found out about David's death today (08/31/2020). I had not been close to him since our days at Penn State. However David was a huge influence in my life (astrology) and my heart & prayers goes out to Dee. I am sure that David is doing quite well in his new abode and eagerly exploring  all those mansions.


We shared so many wonderful memories with David and Dee. David was always a delight as well as a wise, learned soul. I'll always remember the laughter and smiles, the insightful words and the deep conversations. My husband and I are ever grateful to have called him friend, and we'll be here to support Dee as she finds her way through this loss. 

David was a great guy and we shared professional astrology, golf, metaphysics and dinners. I knew him about 25 years. He and Dee and I also played golf quite a few times and David was the one who had the best sense of humor about it. I attended Dee's annual Passover seder and David was always a gracious co-host and willing participant. I was best man at their wedding. I feel his soul/spirit moving on at just the right time for his spiritual growth. He is part of a greater PLAN that all of us are engaged in!!!

David was both my love and my friend. He will be forever in my heart.

To Denise with my greatest sympathy.  It was an honor to know David. He was a very special person.  He was a soft spoken, generous and kind man. God did not heal David like we hoped he would, but even now he is healed and waiting for his family and friends who today miss him so much. God bless you Denise and your family.

I have had the pleasure of meeting David on a number of occasions both at his home and mine in Barbados.  It was an honor to know a kind and true gentleman such as him and i will forever remember the love and hospitality of him and his lovely wife Denise who went above and beyond to ensure my last trip to NC was spent memorably, camping, biking, kayaking and more.

To Denise and family
Larry and I wish you heart felt sympathy and our condolence during your time of bereavement. May God continue to bless you and the family.


There truly are no words to describe David and what this world lost when he left this earthly home to go to his forever home with his Heavenly Father.  I met David 15+ years ago and he always demonstrated kindness, patience and compassion to all he connected with.   The love and devotion he showed Denise was remarkable and unlike any other.   Both were amazingly blessed to have one another.  David, you will be missed, and we are selfish and want you here each day, but we have peace in knowing you are no longer in pain and you are with our Heavenly Father.  Until we meet again. 
Rest easy my brother.  
To Denise, I love you and will be here for you.  My thoughts and prayers are always with you.  I am beyond blessed to call you sister.  I grieve with you in your pain and loss, but rejoice with you in his amazing life with you and the time you had.  May God bring you peace during your loss and suffering and joy in his healing power during this hard time.  
With all my love,
Tiffany Johnson

Denise, I just learned about the loss of your husband David. I want to wish you and your family peace , love and strength during this difficult and trying time.

A moment to share the memories and love that I had for my son in law David.  I will miss David so very much and want to thank him for the life we shared together.  Thank you for all the respect you showed to me and our family for so many wonderful years. I could not have ask for a better son in law.  With no reservations a gentle soul and man to marry, love deeply and take care of my  beautiful  daughter Denise.  He was a wonderful Stepfather to my Grandson Chris. The love between my daughter and David was beyond words. My appreciation He was a fine man and I will miss him deeply. I love you David and will miss you so much as will your family. With sincere snd deep love. My sympathy, Doc

My deepest sympathy for my friend Denise and family. It makes me so very sad to know that I will not see David's smile and share time with he and Denise together.   David was one of the kindest, caring,  sincere, honest person I have ever met.  He enjoyed his life and loved his wife Denise and family to the upmost with joy and respect.  He gave all he had to give and now he is an Angel flying high up in the Heavens above watching over us all. He cared and he will always be missed. I thank God to be able to say that he was my friend. My heart aches from this great loss. DAVID WAS A GENTLE MAN and fought his sickness with dignity and now is well and healthy again.  I LOVE YOU DAVID.

I've met David on various occasions. I joined David and Denise for Seder at their home on two occasions. David was very welcoming and kind and had the personality that made you feel immediately at ease. I also attended an event where Denise played the guitar and sang. I sat at a table with David. He was so welcoming and loved to see Denise's friends see her perform. You could see in David's eyes his joy and how proud he was of Denise. It was always obvious how much they loved and respected each other. David had a long battle and Denise fought for him through the entire battle. She would NOT give up. All of Denise's energy and passion for the man she loved so much went into finding new studies, new treatments, anything that would help David. Rarely do you see couples so perfect for each other. My prayers are that David will rest in peace for eternity and Denise can someday along with the sorrow, smile at the memories they shared.
Love,
 Sharon Trainor
