This tribute is in honor of my beloved brother. Our almost 10-year age gap made it incredibly difficult to build a sibling connection early on and yet somehow we managed to be the odds and built an untraditional connection that most will never understand. While we did not spend much day to day time together we always found ways to connect and capture moments that most cannot comprehend. Those moments I will forever cherish. We all knew David in our own special unique way as he played a vital role in many of our lives. He was a wonderful brother, son, father, husband, family man, and friend. He was funny, modest, caring, smart, always looking to learn more, humble, compassionate and above all loyal. He was someone to look up to and admire while making it easy to love him unconditionally. Born June 25th 1962 made his zodiac sign a water sign giving him the foundation of being emotional, sensitive, devoted, perceptive, strong sense of home and being protective of his family. All of which best describe his character. David was born into this world a breech birth. That same level of tenacity and determination that brought him into this world is what he demonstrated throughout his life all the way up until he transitioned on January 27th 2025. One may say, he came into this world fighting and he left this world fighting. Although he will be missed greatly, it brings comfort to know that he no longer has to fight and he no longer has to endure the struggles he faced over the past 2 years. While there is great pride in the fact that he truly beat the odds it is a relief to know that he is now at peace. David, know that you are loved and will be missed. Til we meet again.

Hello Dear Jill and family 
Although I never met David from what I read and knowing he was your husband I’m absolutely certain he was a wonderful man.   Your loss is Heaven’s gain.  Trust in the Lord’s promises that you’ll see him again someday, along with Uncle Jim and aunt Roberta ( Miriam ), and ALL our loved ones who now dine with the Lord.  I’m sorry for the many miles between us, but please know my Prayers, heart and thoughts are there with you. 
I hope to see you all someday on this side of Heaven, but if not, I’ll see you in the BIG HOUSE someday. 
Peace, Love and Blessings 
Your cousin 
Burt Bush “JR”.   ( Homer’s grandson )

Thank you Uncle Dave for all the fun we shared. You will be missed.

From Darya: I remember seeing Uncle Dave on visits to Spring Hill, Lutz, and Tampa. We always had great visits and sometimes he would talk with the cousins about our future plans. Deepest condolences to the family, and I hope that as time goes by we can stay close and continue to look out for each other. Deepest sympathy. He was well loved. 
From Frank: May the Lord have mercy and strengthen his family and us. May the Lord be with you. Take care. Psalm 34: 18 The Lord is near to the broken hearted and saves the crushed in spirit.

He was a wonderful husband and father, but I am blessed to have called him my uncle. He was always kind and warm to me, and I will always cherish the memories of Uncle Dave.

David was a good brother-in-law, a friend, and a devoted family man. Through the years, we played a lot of games together with the other brothers-in-laws and his dad, like poker and Risk.  I remember one time he brought hamburger patties and we had a barbeque before we settled down to play cards.  He made sure everyone had enough to eat.  He was a caring person and that was what made him so wonderful to know. He was also my best man at our wedding.  Here's to you, Dave, and I'll see you again in the great beyond!

In addition to being my brother-in-law, Dave has been a friend through the years. I have many good memories of him. For example, I  remember he made a really unique video of me playing guitar and singing, but also incorporated pictures and other video clips. I also remember your kindness, such as when you and Jill gave me a party after a dance recital I was in (there was great food, fun, and even flowers for me!) 
Thank you for your kindness  and friendship throughout the years.

Dave had a kind and gentle spirit. He will truly be missed. Love and prayers to the family!

Over the years I enjoyed playing board games and card games with Dave and the other guys in the family. A couple of times Dave and I canoed on the Hillsboro River and saw many alligators and birds and beautiful scenery. Once as we ate lunch on shore, we were harassed and entertained by squirrels trying to get up the nerve to rob us of our lunch. We will miss Dave, but continue to cherish Jill, Johnny and Jessica.

Deepest sympathy to the family on the loss of Dave C, dear husband and father.  Sending much  love to you all.

Dave, my brother-in-law, was a very special, loving person.  He enjoyed listening to people because he was interested in their lives and often offered to help if needed.  

He cared about people so much.  I remember the time I was getting over meningitis and because I was really weak, he hand-fed me.  It was really sweet and I never forgot it. 

He will be greatly missed as an important and loving person in our extended family.
