David - I worked with your Dad at the Orange Plant for numerous years while I was Maintenance Superintendent there. He had a brilliant mind and provided many ideas and advancements to the plant. He was much admired by all the folks there. He talked about you often and was so proud of you. Dale Durr Kerrville, Texas

David, your dad was a very kind gentle man. My memories include things he crafted and made for the children at Bible school (i.e. Tic Tac Toe game boxes, cross cut outs, etc.). We were privileged to have been blessed by his talents.
