My sincerest condolences and prayers Shirley. My mother told me about David's passing. She reminded me of the time when my sister Brenda and myself used to play with your dog along with Bowser your neighbor's dog. The two of you were such a sweet couple to allow two random neighborhood kids into your life for a summer or so God bless you all and your family. You're back in the alley kids Bruce Groeper
