Condolences to Joyce and family. Mom and I so appreciated our last visit with Joyce and Dave and their grandson. It meant so much to mom and it was so clear to us both how kind and thoughtful and loving Dave is and was with all those around him. He will be missed. Sending love to all of you.

Dave was a kind and gentle man And will be greatly missed by his family and his friends. I hope you find comfort in one of my favorite poems reflecting our loss.
And when you miss me most, remember that i have only built a house next door. a single breath away. we can whisper through the walls. and send love notes in the shape of stars and sunsets and the way that the light glistens on the water just so. and although things are hard for you now, i am not far away. i am absent only in flesh but my spirit is dancing with the heavenly ones. we will reach each other once again. i promise. just not yet. find laughter again, okay? find music and purpose and ways to feel alive. we are only separated by a glimmer of time. an interval. take comfort. i have only built a house next door.
