The family appreciates all of the support and prayers from this very close group of friends.

This is the position that took him to Natchez and his farm where he truly enjoyed retirement with his beloved dog, Sugar. Sugar has found her forever home with a dear friend. Throughout his career, deep friendships were made among this brotherhood of law enforcement men and women. David’s family is forever grateful for each one that reached out to David during these last 4 months. Their memories of David brought a whole new perspective of who he was.
