My heart is broken today and I’m just sorry I could not be there for you and your family but you can bet I’ll be there for you in the future
Hoping your hearts heal and I will miss my brother David , an amazing Man and a Mensch of the highest order 


Condolences to Andrea, David’s children; and siblings Randy, and Amy.  David’s wit was so endearing even when he was a little kid.  Growing up we were so close to the Baum family.  Uncle Alex and Aunt Betty  were my godparents and Eric and Simmie  we’re godparents to our son.  Farewell my cousin David.  You left us too early and will be truly missed by everyone whose life you touched.

Andrea ,
  I extend my condolences to you and your whole family, on the  tragic loss of  your husband  , father David .    May your memories  with him stay with you, and your loved ones, forever. 
  Like to share a memory of David. I was at  Gero  Park one day walking the dog, David was there with his son's and daughter. He was providing information and work advise to a group of  young students. 
  You could see in his eyes , voice, and his smile  how much he loved sharing with them . With  his  profound wisdom. and knowledge.  I  will never  forgot that moment, and the joy on all their faces. 
 May god grant you the strength and the courage to continue on in his memory .

It is with great sadness and sorrow that I  offer my condolences and that my family to the entire Baum family. Many fond memories of David growing up. My favorite is when his parents were out of town and David stayed with us while they were away. David got up in the morning looked at my mom and demanded that she make his bed As he was in charge of the house despite being the youngest one there. David grew up in an amazing and loving family and created that same for himself. Our hearts are broken for all of you. May his memory be a blessing for you always

Andrea, I am very sorry for the loss of your dear David. Such sorrow is a heavy burden. I hope there is solace in arc of memories from a life well lived, and especially those of his generosity, kindness, and presence with you. Please accept my condolences on his passing. Sadly, José Estabil
