David’s Story

Site created on December 4, 2020


Update as of December 17, 2020:
Dear all,


It is with a heavy heart that I report to you of David's passing today. We ask that you pray for Mary and the family. Please also pray for David's soul and may God's light shine upon him forever. 


We ask that you give the family some space and we will update you accordingly in the days to come. 



Welcome to our CaringBridge website. You have been invited to this site because you are a dear friend to the Burellis. Because of this, you are most likely aware of what has been happening with David. We are using it to keep family and friends updated in one place. We appreciate your support and words of hope and encouragement. When most others are having family get togethers to bake cookies, shop, wrap gifts or just have merriment, unfortunately that is not the case for our beloved the Burellis. They are gathering together and we will try to make it as stress-free as possible. We all care so very much for this wonderful family and everyone has been asking "What can I do?". Well, some of us decided to put together this Caring Bridge Site, which allows us to share comments and upload photos of great times we have had with the Burellis over the years which will hopefully lift their spirits!
We have also linked it to the Meal Train. This is where all of us FOB (Friends of Burellis) come in - Let's pull together and help make their time together really about togetherness and not have them worry about "What's for dinner?" every night. We can all sign up to deliver a nice meal to them (home cooked or not) to ease their burden and allow them to be there for each other. There will be 9 family members gathering close and they need our support. You can even join efforts with a friend and sign up for a night together! What better way to be a 'reason for the season' than to help others, especially those we love and hold so dear?

From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you!
Dawn, Maryanne, Chantal, and Dianne
