David was a very special person to me. We worked together for about 10 years at Del Mar Electronics. I learned so much from him as well as so many things we learned together. We learned about computers together when computers first became popular in the work place. He was incredibly intelligent, always reliable and a man of his word. He was a great friend and co-worker. He came from good stock as I knew his Dad Eddie and his brother Steve well. May God bless his Family who was so important to him. During this time and always. David will always be remembered as a very soecial person to me. Rest in peace my friend!

I had known David for many years, working at KHOU and using David's help with AT&T for every Thanksgiving Parade. He would setup and run fiber the day before Thanksgiving every year. I will think kindly of him, especially this Thanksgiving. He will be missed. God Bless his family.

I just learned of Davids passing and was shocked and saddened. I worked with David for many years on many events. David was always on the ball and worked hard to provide for his customers. On top of that he was just a good guy to talk to and share stories with. He will be missed. My heartfelt condolences to David's family and friends.
