I went to school with David, he was what I would have called "a gentle giant". He was tall very tall, quiet very quiet. But he had a smile that would light up an entire room. All I can say it "thank you" David for your strength of character and love of your fellow person. My youngest daughter is following in your chosen profession and I've got to say "I'm scared". I can only pray for her safety. God's Blessings to those you left behind.
