My Dear old friend David.
Just heard of your passing.
I could write a book on our exploits in High School, including hunting trips on your motorcycle, sneaking into the Drive in theatre, exploring the Blimp Base, getting older dudes to buy us beer on Saturday Nights and of course Mass on Sundays at Queen of Peace.
And many more.
I always remembered you as a stand up guy.
Thanks for helping me get through Biology.
Will always remember and treasure our friendship.
Hey brother, sorry our schedules did not seem to coincide but we are not even given a clue from our Almighty God when our last breath on this earth will end.
I really only remember when you came back from the navy and seemed to have a new car every six months or less. Mother would let me take them out for a spin or to school while you went to work with someone else. I don’t know how that could happen but that was pretty envious for some at school. Thanks for all the good times around Galveston and hanging out with y’all. You did a fine job as a father.
You and your family will be always in our prayers.
Love You Always
Brother, Paul and Elaine Muehe and family
David was a friend at the old Pioneer Drive Inn where everyone gathered on Fri or Sat night to make plans on what we all would do. My sympathies to David’s love ones and close friends.
I am so happy that his brother, Dennis Muehe and myself, were able to visit David at his home in La Marque last December. Carolyn
