Rest in Peace David
I had the pleasure of knowing David for many years and spending time with him traveling to Trapshoots. David was the most honest, trustworthy person I know and a fierce competetor on the trap line. He had a big heart and would not hesitate to help those that needed it.
He will be missed by those that knew him.

Sorry to learn of Mr Goodfriend’s death. He was blessed to have family members to care for him during his declining health. Would like to acknowledge his military service to our great country as a U. S. Army Veteran.
