To my dear Mum and David
I'm so glad that you had the blessing of crossing paths.
When you met, regardless of how petulant a teenager I was, it was so ABUNDANTLY clear how happy you made one another. It was obvious that you provided each other both the romance, companionship and "best-friend"ship that you'd not yet found before. Mum, I hope you know it was blatant to everyone, people often mentioning around town, that you'd lit something up in each other and seemed like the perfect and obvious fit. Not only was it Dave, but what you two did with the better part of 2 decades, that gave so many people around you, such a gift. You allowed so many people to share in and enjoy your matching humours, your families, your awesome Dave-Chevy host/hostessing dynamic, your kind hearted and neighbourly spirits. You two at a gathering were such a duo, Dave loud and goofy, you making sure every hand had a drink or full plate.
It was a legendary adventure to watch and I only hope Andrew and I can provide the memories to others over our years together as well as you two have for so many. And while many good adventure chapters have their time, I just think it's so cool Dave, who was such a guy, chose you to be the gal who will remain his forever. Xo
