Diana and Jeff,
I’m so sorry I can’t be there, I really want to be. Some of my fondest childhood memories involve Dave. My brother drinking his beer, “fishing” at Lake Lemon, trying to drown everyone on Grandpa Worrell’s pontoon, and many more. That’s the way I choose to remember Dave, and always will. Your whole family is in my prayers, and know that I will be with you all Monday, at least in spirit.
Diana Sampson says
Jeff – I want you to know that Dave was the kindest, sweetest, most tender and loving man I have ever known. We shared a marvelous 29 years and 30 days having been in love from the first moment we met. He loved you beyond anything. He was extremely proud of you Jeff and he adored Trinity. He was a caring step-father to my children and the love of my life. I will miss him always.
The Gibson Family says
David was a great man and will be sadly missed.Our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family.
