JD is missed greatly.  God Bless. I knew him mostly as an adolescent on Naudain Street in Philadelphia. I was very close over several years to both him (known then as Davey D) and his brother Mike. They were both bright, charming and loving. And we kept in touch through the years. Their loss leaves a big hole.

I spent time with JD at The College of Wooster. He was an artist, a friend, and a good person. I am stunned to hear of his passing, and send my condolences to his family. May he rest in peace.

My sincere condolences to Helen, Jackson and Liza. I knew JD for 32 years and we shared a number of light hearted stories of our kids. He was quick with a smile and a goofy joke. He was a good family man and was very proud of his kids and I could always hear the love he had for them whenever they came up in conversation. This of course came as a huge shock. I don't mind saying, I shed a few tears knowing I won't be seeing and hearing my old friend anymore. I'm very grateful to have known JD for the time that I did. Rest in peace brother. 😔

Very fond memories of JD at the College of Wooster. Wonderful conversations with a smart and thoughtful young man.

JD was a big brother to me at Wooster. We tested each other, had fun together and debated many things under the Sun and Moon. I am lucky to have know him and wish peace and good tidings to his family and friends.

All love to you JD. Jam on. My deepest condolences to your family and friends.

A friend who always made you feel good upon seeing him.  Someone who always made you feel like you belonged. (He even gave me a nickname 30 years ago that still sticks with friends in my circle.) 

Grateful to have been friends with him. Hurting for all those who are grieving; he must have had hundreds of friends.

Prayers for your family.  JD was a peer of mine at work over the years.

Grateful to have known JD.  He and his family are in my prayers today.

In Burtonsville , his enthusiasm, love and service will be missed.  Condolences to his family and friends.  Prayers and love.
