For Dave and Deb:
When tomorrow starts without me
Please try to understand
That an angel came & called my name
Then took me by the hand

But as I turned to walk away
A tear fell from my eye
For all my life, I'd always thought
I didn't want to die

I had so much to live for
So much left yet to do
It seemed impossible
That I was leaving you

I thought of all the yesterdays
The good ones & the bad
I thought of all the love we shared
& all the fun we had

But when I walked through heaven's gates
I felt so much at home
Then God looked down & smiled at me
From His great & golden throne.

He said, "This is eternity,
& all I've promised you."
Today your life on earth is past,
But here life starts anew

My Love, when tomorrow starts without me
Don't think we're far apart
For every time you think of me
I'm right here, in your heart

Love you, Bob & Em##imported-begin##Bob & Emily Lounge##imported-end##

What great memories I have of Dave. We shared many a lonely nights at NMMI in the early '70's. I will make sure we read his name at our silver taps ceremony at homecoming. This is what is said at the end of the ceremony after all the names are read.

A quote from the 1933 Bronco about a cadet, George O. Speer 1933 JCX, who was killed in a Polo Game is appropriate at this ceremony.
BUT IF THEY ARE GONE FROM OUR RANKS, WE KEEP THEM ON OUR ROSTER, AS VALUES ONCE INTIMATELY KNOWN AND AVAILABLE IN OUR RECOLLECTIONS AND IN OUR HEARTS. THEY WILL REMAIN FOREVER YOUNG.##imported-begin##Randal Brown##imported-end##

We only met David one time when you were all in Hugo, but he did make an impression on us. He seemed very kind and loving towards his family. We are keeping you in our prayers, Debbie, and wish we could say words that would make this very sad time easier for you. We love you and please call if ever you need us. Love you.##imported-begin##John and Debbie Gove##imported-end##
