You both have given us your words, your art, humor, the sense of him, his courage, your grace. These are not just memories, but have become part of us. I aspire to have his courage and your grace. We are always here for you, you know.

Carry on David and Kathleen! We love you both and think about you both every time we walk by David's magnificent kitchen cupboards built with those wood-stained hands. To our neighbor Kathleen: sorrow does make you creative. Doo moo arigato!!!

Remembering David- three years gone.
