The love and joy that David brought to us will never be forgotten. We are thinking of you and your family during this tragic time. David was a true inspiration to everyone around him. I am lucky to have known him for the time that I did. Our prayers are with you. He will be missed but always loved!
We were shocked and saddened to learn of David’s passing. He will live on in our hearts and our cherished memories of happy times together. David was our companion on many north-shore camping trips and family events at his Grandma Diane’s home. I’ll always remember him as wanting to help, usually with a great deal of positive, sometimes overwhelming, energy! I have to laugh through my tears as I remember those days. We extend our deepest, loving, condolences to the Moore and Henrickson families in this very sad loss. Our hearts ache with yours. Sending you love, Kris & Steve Johannsen
I have known you ever since I was a little kid. You were always like a big brother to me. I love you so much, David. You will be greatly missed. You always knew how to cheer people up and make them laugh, even if they were having a bad day. You were a bright star in a darkened world. Thank you for the memories and I will cherish them forever. I love you David.
David was a good friend to our son, David. We truly appreciate everything he did for the Memorial Day Truck Run . It’s very uplifting to see young men with that much passion for something so important. He will be missed. Rest in Peace David. Carole and Matt Crosby
I don’t remember when we became friends. I think that’s because it was instant. I had almost 7 years with you. It wasn’t enough, but it was worth it. The first message I ever got from you was telling me to have a happy birthday and a great day. That’s how you were. Making sure everyone you cared about was having a great day. We grew so close that we talked every day. I even talked to you Friday night at about 11. I still write to you. When I saw you, I told you that I loved you. I’m telling you again. I love you, Dave. I love you so much. I will miss you terribly. I already do. Thank you for being one of my best friends.
David…… Gezz kid!! God only take the best of us to early!! You have my heart and that of many others! To think we spoke recently but never long enough. The man you became is testament of you parents love for you! Smartass, always Loving forever, We will Ride together forever!! Love Gregg
My sincere sympathy to the family. What s tragic loss. GREGG IS RIGHT, God only takes the best at such a young age. Harlen Jr & Lisa you don’t know me but Harlen Sr was my cousin. David resembles Grandpa Harlen . God’s peace.
I am so lost without you Brother. I just will never figure out how I am going to fill the void you left in my heart. This is not getting any easier for me, for anyone. I will always try to do my best to honor your memory, your integrity and you values. Even the Police officer said you were a kind, caring soul. All you asked for was for him to hold your hands. He never left your side! I know I will see you again and it will be beautiful. I just don’t know how J will make it until I see you. It is kind of funny, but all the spokes on your wheel are becoming close friends. The last thing you did on this world was to unite a bunch of strangers to become a family. Now you have created a Legacy. All you ever wanted was a family and now you have one. And I still think we are all from the island of misfit toys! We will miss you! GBNEVERF! LLRBMFB! Gunner
Brother, Can not believe it’s been almost a year this week. There are many of us who didn’t know how we’d make it without you. And in some part, I don’t think we did. Life never could have ever imagined how much you did for everyone, and how much you loved and have of yourself. Some people are still finding out how amazing you are and how much you helped humanity. I know when you left, you took a much bigger part of myself with you, than I even imagined. I still feel like I’m half here, and half in heaven. There has not been one day in this last year, that I haven’t thought about you. It still hurts like it was yesterday. You truly were the glue that held us together. All of us, in your true mechanic fashion, you were the axle that held all the spokes on the wheel. And a year later I’ve seen so many of those spokes shatter. Everyone misses you, and your still the center of everything we do. I love you my Brother! LIVE FREE, and RIDE HARD, get my bike ready for when we meet again. Hug Jesus, someday, I’ll get to hug you and we will ride together, but for now, just watch over us. All my love, Brother Gunner
I’m so sad to find out Dave had a accident and died. He was such a awesome person, I’m so sorry to all his family and friends… He willing be missed
