To Mrs. David York and family, I knew Mr York for the 13 years I worked at Martin High School. He was one of the only staff that I respected and admired for his work ethic and his passion for helping us teachers, and the students. May his soul find peace with the Lord and may you and his family find the strength to continue in his absence. My sincere condolences during this time of sorrow.

My most heartfelt condolences to Monica, JoAnna, DJ, and sister Sandra and family. Monica so so sorry for your loss. Indeed, David was truly a great husband, dad, brother, and most of all a great great friend, like a brother to my brother Alfonso Araiza. It really hurts to hear that an Angel has departed from this earth, but we know that God needed this Angel . And this Angel will will take of his family and friends as much as he took care of you all here on earth. Praying for you all , May God give you all the strength you need at this difficult time and may David Rest In Peace. ??? Marta Araiza and family and the Araiza family.
