David, was a beloved individual whose vibrant spirit brought joy to many. A devoted fan of the Three Stooges, he loved imitating Curly's iconic sounds and gestures, showcasing his great sense of humor. Music, especially The Beatles, filled his life with happiness, often enjoyed through his headphones. He loved the playful moments when Dyla, his brother Jon's dog, would lick his face.
