David was my first best friend at Kingsley school. Remained a special friend forever. Always did things his way and I admired his unique brand of humor. Respected his ability to hit golf shots out of sand traps just like he lived life. Give him a challenge and he rose to the task. Rest In Peace my friend. Gerald Mullen

My condolences to the Hicks family. When loosing a loved one it can be unbearable. That is why God has provided scriptures in the Bible to help ones cope with the loss. In the Bible book of Isaiah 25:8 Jehovah God promises soon to "swallow up death forever." He also promises to bring back those who have fallen asleep in death (Acts 24:15). In a little while longer this kind of pain will be a thing of the past (Revelations 21:4). May these scriptures bring you comfort in this difficult time (jw.org)
