A statement from the family: On August 5, 1989, a sweet baby boy we named David Allen Lee II was born to us. His Dad called him boy wonder because of his surprising mischievous behavior. His Mom called him baby boy because that’s what he was, a special gift from the heavens above, our bright shining star. He made us laugh with his silly humor, he made us cry when he was troubled, he made us proud of all his achievements but most of all he taught us to learn, to love and to be caring of others. David was a special person to everyone who knew and loved him. He enjoyed cooking, dancing, watching his favorite TV shows & movies, listening to his favorite music on his IPod, going out to dinner with friends and family, playing video games, working out in the gym and most recently he had mastered the craft of crochet. David had many interests and talents and he so much enjoyed working at his job as a landscaper. We loved you then, we love you now and we will never ever stop loving you. Our hearts are aching for you, we miss you so much David, more than you will ever know <3 To all of our friends and family who have comforted us during our time of sorrow we truly and deeply thank you and appreciate the love and support you have given us. A special thank you to Angie DeGrote, Jessica Berentsen, Kris Hamilton, Kellie Keen-DeBenedictus, Chris Wood, Peg Petrillo-Carparelli, Linda & Bernie Morris and The Hoblin Family. Not only did you comfort us, you cried with us, you reminisced with us, you gave us strength to face the difficult days that lay ahead. "As I walk along this pebbled path of stone, he who follows me will never walk alone".
