Tributes
"My condolences to the entire family, but especially to Brian who I worked with at Elsa for quite a few years. So very sorry for your loss my friend."
"I leave with you deepest regrets for the loss of your father. I did not really get very close to Tommy David, but have a few little memories to share with you. He stopped by our house on the way to the enlistment center. One of his concerns was that he would not meet the weight requirement. He sat at our table and Mom placed a bunch of bananas in front of him. He ate the whole bunch.! And he passed the physical! Tommy was a good father and a good son May the Lord comfort you during this difficult time. Love, Cheri Curtis Vonnahme"
