David was blessed with his bountiful family.  They have my thoughts and prayers for their loss.  Rest in Peace, David.

David and I were across the street neighbors and often hung out. Later I enjoyed his restaurants as a friend and delighted patron when I was in Albuquerque. He was always a loyal friend and fun guy. I surely wish I could be at his memorial.
