    My best memory is of the two of us playing in the mud and making mud pies, you did not have to take a bath but I did. We grow up and move away, and sadly I had not seen you in many years. I do remember you being the quiet sweet cousin who always seem to stay to yourself. You will be missed by many I am sure. Your cousin, Sherian Melton Gray

    David was my baby brother and I loved him more than he knew. He had been ill for a time, but this was totally unexpected. We didn't talk a great deal on the phone, but we emailed and sent little funny things back and forth all the time. He was probably the most gentle, loving person I have ever known. When God make David, he broke the mold. I don't know how we are going to get past this, the pain and sorrow is unreal.
