David is not only part of my family he is an "old" friend for many years. From school days to just visiting he always brought a laugh & smile to everyone. He is still here in many of our hearts and will always be. I have many happy and funny memories of David that brings a smile everytime. Gert, you & David were the perfect couple... an example other couples should follow. Heaven is not very far and I'm sure that's where David is. .... looking down smiling at us !

I loved you since the moment I met you. I was a young girl when I met you. My daddy Pat Alford introduced me to you. I will never forget the horse shows and playdays...we had so much fun riding horses and having fun. I grew up and married Morris Edward Lynch "Dude" only to find out later that you were friends with him. Like my daddy "Dude" loved you too! Of all the crossroads in life our roads seem to always meet. The greatest thing about our life's crossing is the conversations and love that we had for our father God! We will ride together in paradise one day for all eternity with no more pain or worries!
All Our Love & Prayers, Patsy Beth & Dude
