I was in the hospital this past Monday thru Wednesday... during that time I reached vout for prayer thru Facebook. David was one of the first to say "im on it". I was planning on contacting him when I was feeling better to tell him thank you and how much his prayers ment to me. I was in shock Saturday when I read Ronnie's post of David's passing. God bless you David and all your family. Im so sorry for your lost.
