I am sorry to hear of David’s death. David helped untold numbers of people including myself. I am keeping his loved ones in my prayers during this most hurtful time.
David was one class ahead of me but almost seemed we were in the same one. He was that close and memorable to everyone. RIP Lil David.
The world lost a very good man, who helped numerous amount of people. He will truly be missed. Mr. Royston helped me and my wife over the years. Our prayers go out to the family . We loved David, R.I.P., Mr.Royston.
Mr. Royston was one of the nicest people I have ever met. He was always kind, upbeat, and just all-around wonderful. Definitely one of my favorite people that I will remember always. I am truly saddened to hear of his passing. My heart goes out to Teresa–another wonderful person. Y’all fit together so well. You will be in my prayers. So sad for his daughter. I pray comfort for her, too.

I am so very sorry hearing about the loss of this wonderful friend David. Just found our via Silo Restaurant only 10 min ago.
Yes David helped allot of people and I personally was one of them
Last time I saw David, Teresa, was at mama Helens funeral and I thought he looked really good My heart goes out to all of you in the days to come . Love Pam Cawthon Spivey
If there was ever anyone who knew how to have good time, David was a master at it. A trip to the cow sale could prove to be a two day affair and cover 500 miles, with stories to tell for years to come. He and I could not see each other for a long time but if we got together, it was just like we had talked yesterday. I’m very proud to have been able to call him my friend for many years. He was a good one and there’s not many of them left. Rest in Peace.
So sorry for your loss of David. He was a Great man and God Bless Teresa and all his family. Rest In Peace
Teresa and Donna so sorry for your loss. David was a great man he will truly be missed.
