Myself (John Vitela), Hugo Navarro and David would hang out quite a bit together during the early nineties. We would do things like go clubbing or go to house parties. OR even something as simple as going to Denny's at 2:00 am in the morning to go and eat after him and Hugo would get off after work. Damn they could eat up some food! LMAO... Some of the memories and things we did I cannot mention only because I don't know the legality of those stupid things we did. HA!HA!HA! But in all honesty, he truly brought smiles to everyone he talked to and was as genuine of a person as you can get. May you REST IN PEACE and know that you will be missed by many people.Melissa Joy Alaniz (Cervantes) (1989)
People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime. When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for that person. When someone is in your life for a reason, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend and they are. They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is time to move on. Some people come into your life for a season, because your turn has come to share, grow or learn. They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelieveable amount of joy. Believe it, it is real. But only for a season. Lifetime relationships teach you lifetime lessons, things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant. David, I can only say thank you for being a part of my life, whether you were a reason, a season but most definitely a LIFTIME......Brianna and I will love you always and miss you dearly!!!! Always watch over our girl Dav....she will need you always. May you be spreading all that laughter in Heaven!!!!!!!Melissa Joy Alaniz (Cervantes) (1989)
We are five days shy of being the 1 yr anniversary of David's death. The hurt is still as fresh as the day it happened. I know Dav would be happy of how all of his known friends have remembered him has a good guy always happy and ALWAYS smiling. And also how everyone has prayed for his children to be ok through all this maddness called life. I too remember Dav in a good light because he was so special and no one can say different. I am just Blessed to have Brianna Danielle Barboza, the BEST gift Dav could have ever given me.......and the ones that don't know, she looks all like Dav, though she would love to have his height, the smiles are identical. We will always love and miss David and I can only hope that a yr later that he is still in heaven shining the great big smile.

Damn bro, still can't believe you're not here. We all had a lot of good times together. Remember when you first came over from Davis. It was all out beast mode on the field. Nothing but fun off of it. Once I got your ass to laughing it didn't stop. Man that was some funny shit. Miss making you laugh, and hearing you laugh. Nothing but the best to all of your family and friends. To the people that loved you the most, my heart goes out to all of y'all. The only thing bigger then Dave was his heart. When he was your friend you knew it, everytime you hung out, everytime you shook his hand. RIP, brother.
