Happy Birthday!

The memory of David that has touched me the deeoest and stayed with me the longest was the purpose he chose for living his life.  That purpose was to be to each person he met and to do for, each person God brought across his path, however briefly, what Jesus Christ would be and do for that person in so far as it was in his power to do so   I cannot think of any higher purpose for living than the one David consciously chose and did his best to live by.                      ---Don Clark

I will forever be in awe of this mans creative universe of which he was the center. The  ideas and visions which sprung forth from his mind and vision  during  productions at the  theatre were like solar flares erupting from the sun.  The world has lost a great gravitational force and heavenly body. I feel privileged to have known him, to have been inspired by him, and to take liberties in calling him a friend  if even on one of the brief orbital paths that moved my world through his, or his through mine, it's difficult to determine which was which.  I will always have the deepest of fondness  for Linda, Joan, and his daughters, The universe is at a loss, but I hope that the universe will see to it that those he left behind will always know and feel his presence.

Grandparent’s day

My deepest condolences to the Zent family. I have fond memories of David. His talent and passion for the arts was infective. 

My love for the Zent family runs very deep.  I was blessed to be apart of this family for a short time and my memories of Dave are filled with love, laughter and showtunes! 

I went to Catalina Island with the Zents   ( many of them) Dave began singing the 26 miles ( Santa Catalina song) on the boat .  Everyone stopped to listen, smiled , toe tapped, then applauded wanting more!  It's many moments like these, I will always cherish.

  He loved his girls so much and was so very proud of everyone of them. When he spoke of them he would smile with such joy!    

I remember Dave singing this song often  "Ooooh, what a lucky man he was"   he was the luckiest indeed! 

Be at peace my friend.

When he and his family would visit, the birthday parties, dinners and trips. We would also go to the melodrama or wherever he was singing. It was all fun
