The most I remember about David is that he loved Ju kudo being outside being on the water he was good with tri chucks ,nunchucks, Bows , swords he loves playing with ninja stars and dressing up in the ninja suits too, but he was especially good with the tri checks, I remember his laugh was the best, he was always super sweet caring and giving. He loved his job . He also love this cats , I also remember this one time me and David did not clean our room and dad got so mad so what he did was going our room and really messed it up and then go and tell us to clean it up. After that we kept our room clean.lol all around David had a huge heart he loved to play the guitar loved music loved walking on trails camping sitting by the campfire b***********. I just know that David will be missed but not forgotten and he'll always be in our hearts and our minds. David we love you ...

Renae and Laurie, 

I am so sorry for your lost. I can’t imagine the lost of a brother and a son. David was such a good kid. I remember him when he was in fifth or sixth grade, he was pretty inquisitive about me and the places I thought would be cool to visit. He would come in and hang out with Renae , John and myself, the whole time bugging his big sister. David you can see the world now buddy. You are and will be truly missed. Rest easy brother.  

I’m truly sorry Renae, and Laurie

Renae and Laurie,

Though I never got the opportunity to meet David in person, I did get to know him through many phone conversations with him and stories that Renae shared with me.  He was always sharing stories about the past that put a big smile on his sisters face.  She loved her brother very much, and was proud of him. He will be greatly missed, but I know he’s smiling down on us all.

When I met David he was in 5th grade. I was a sophomore in high school and hanging out with his sister, Renae. I often think that he was my karma coming back to haunt me. I had sister who was 3 years older than me, and when I was in middle school I would pester her relentlessly whenever she had her friends or boyfriend over. A few years later, David helped me understand just how much I must’ve annoyed her. He always wanted to wrestle and play around, anything but leave me alone so I could spend time with Renae. Good job, kid. My sister would’ve been so happy that you paid me back for her. 😂😉

I didn’t see David after that time. I changed schools and life takes people in different directions. However, I will always have those memories to look back on and laugh about. 

My condolences to you both,  Renae and Laurie.

Sending my love and condolences to you and Renea, Laurie you have been on my mind and in my prayers. Hugs to you both.

Laurena and Renae,

My sympathies and prayers to you and family for your loss of David. I remember him years ago being a sweet souled kid.

Sincerely, 

Chris Shelton
