A special thank you to David's sister, Diane for being there for David and for all the extra things she did for him. We would also like to thank all of David's friends for giving up their time to help David by getting him to appointments and everything else that they did for him. We would then like to thank St. Luke’s Hospital for providing David with a new heart and helping to keep David alive these last 20 years. Lastly, the family would like to thank Uecker-Witt Funeral Home.
