David was a fun guy. It took him a while to find his calling in life, but once he did, it was serious business. That calling was rescue services and he thought of little else, working hard at becoming a good paramedic/firefighter. David had a bright future; he was smart and compassionate, such an inspiring young man.<br />

It is sad to lose one so young and so willing to serve mankind; he earned his wings and his strong shoulders were needed to help others.<br />
