Dear Jean. David and Jon.
We were so very sad to hear of Davids passing. A dear friend and always a great guy to see about our glasses needs. We will never forget our friendship and the many wonderful conversations at your home or office. May God bless you all and help you through this difficult time.
Love to you all

Jean,David &Jon and family. Sincere condolences for you all with your loss. I have fond memories, not only of growing up on the same road in younger years, but also the friendship later on when I worked at Dutch Hollow and getting to know you both better when you gathered there with friends, and also seeing you both at Church. Let the memories be held close to your hearts and help get you through the rough days.

My heart goes out to Jean and all of the family. My prayers are with you always. David will be missed. May he rest in peace in the arms of the Lord.
So sorry to hear this Jean .David was a great person he was also a friend. I remember when he worked at whelpley and Paul and I was told I may never be able to wear contacts by my eye Dr but go there and see Dave he is the best and will have the patience and skill if he tells you you can’t then you can’t wear them. Well I’m 68 and I have been wearing contacts my whole life thanks to him. It was not easy for him but he never gave up on me. I will always be grateful to him for that.
One of the blessings in our lives was knowing you.
