Dave was my ex husband and he was a wonderful human being to everyone he met. It was the reason I married him. He told me once that when ge was a kid his best friends dad nicknamed him "Baby Jesus" because he was always willing to lend a hand or do anything for anyone and it's true, he would give anyone a place to stay if they needed it, he'd help neighbors with whatever they needed and would lend money to those in need even if he knew they couldn't pay him back. He was the best friend I've ever had and the best man I've ever known and I've missed him for 26 years and will go on missing him forever. So long to my Twin Flame, one day we will meet again.

A big hug and thank you to Tracy for being there for him and being his friend and to everyone who was able to he there for him after his stroke.

With much Love and Sadness
