I am Stephen Perry, son of David’s sister, Linda Sinha (Hunter) from central Ohio. David was a kind and gentle man with a lot of spirit and always had a generous smile or something humorous on the tip of his tongue. I barely knew him, but the time I spent with him when he came to Ohio was an experience I’ll never forget. It seems like yesterday that he was here. I’m glad I got to meet Dave, my uncle. May he rest in peace. My thoughts and prayers are with my extended family in Texas and Portsmouth, Ohio.
I am David’s sister Linda from Ohio . I miss my brother greatly . His kind gentle heart, and thoughtfulness., always a smile on his face, always making me laugh . He didn’t know a stranger, He spoke to anyone he met as if he had known them for a long time. He had a way about him that made others take to him instantly . He was the best brother I could ever hope for. I loved you dearly brother and you will be forever in my heart and mind til the day we meet again in heaven. My thoughts and prayers are with Jerry and the children.
I am just a friend who cares and wanted to share some comfort. Many have fround that comfort in God’s word. There we find a promise that we can be reunited with our loved ones again (John 5:28,29 Acts 24:15). God has made a promise to end all death, mourning and suffering forever. This hope will soon be realized (Psalm 37:11,29) If you would like additonal comfort pleae see the website jw.org. Again, I am very sorry for your loss and you are in my prayers.
