A memorial will also be held by his family and friends in Washington state. An announcement will be made once a time and place has been determined. David’s first camping trip was on the Olympic Peninsula in the Hoh National Rainforest when he was just three weeks old. His spirit will continue as his body will be returned to earth and nourish the trees on the Olympic Peninsula, in Quinault Washington, a place he dearly loved. As a request from David, please give cut flowers to those you love for whatever reason or just to say, I love you. Rest in peace with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. John 3:16 -- For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
