Dear Jo and family,
Words cannot express how sad I was to hear about the passing of your son David. I never had the chance to meet him but I can tell he was a wonderful, kind soul who was loved by so many. None of us know how long we will be here and that´s why we need to enjoy and care for one another, just like David did with his family and friends. May he rest in peace!

Menary Family -
I am so deeply sorry for your loss. David, along side Christian Curry were my roommates freshman year at the University of Redlands. David was the most pure, authentic, and selfless people I have ever met. He was so fun to be around - always finding joy in the little things in life, and developed a special bond with everyone that he ever crossed paths with. He was a positive light to be around and always supported everyone in their endeavors. I am going to miss David incredibly and hope you all are able to find peace in knowing that he was a shining light in everything he did and carried an authenticity and humbleness that is one of a kind.
My condolences to the Menary family. David, you made everyone around you a better person.

Dear Dave, Jo, and family,
Marcia and I are deeply saddened by the passing of your beloved son David. Over the years, we have looked forward to your Christmas greetings and loving family photos. I always enjoyed listening to a proud father tell me about his children´s accomplishments over the year. At the core, there was always love...a deep abiding love for each other.
In watching the moving celebration of his life, it´s evident your son David was a friend, a confidant, a support, and a hero to so many. He will live on in your hearts and in the hearts and lives of all to whom he meant so much. With love, Frank and Marcia.

Please hold on to the fond memories you have of your dear David IV from over the years, and may those fond memories help sustain you at this time of immense loss.

We're in absolute shock to hear about David's passing. We're so so sorry for your heartbreak. It's our biggest fear to lose one of our boys. We can't believe that your beautiful, supportive, loving, and tight-knit family is experiencing this loss. I have so many fond memories of David. He was mature beyond his years and was always respectful. When Nick and Gary were being rascals together, David never acted like they were a nuisance. It goes back to his love of family and his kindness. Sending you all our love and prayers.

Recalling happier times...Summers when David and cousin Garrett Rice (born same year) enjoyed just being boys. I especially enjoyed those when BWD would bring both David and Gary to Las Vegas for AAU Basketball Tournaments and the NBA Summer League as participants--and, of course, FUN on the Rice Lazy River. Innocent times to cherish forevermore. - Sending Love & Light, Tammy

To the Family
I met David Menary IV on a bright sunny day as he brought Mr. Jake the family Dog to his father´s and my work place at the outdoors at the Sandestin Raven Golf Resort.
There are many ways to for men to observe bonds, love, humanity and character. Through the adoring demeanor of animals and their presence with family. I cannot express great knowledge of David Menary IV but through Kindness of Heart and the admiration of his father and Mr. Jake I believe I can attest to those qualities both in those moments and what I believe in me was to brighten the world ahead.
His father passed on all the good things to his son.

David was a fellow bulldog, classmate, and friend to many. He had a sweet disposition and always greeted others with a kind and quiet strength. I am grateful to have shared part of my college experience knowing David, and seeing his impact on the basketball court and through student life. I would like to offer my condolences and prayers to David´s family, friends, and all who knew and loved him. May David rest peacefully with his family in Heaven and be remembered for his bravery, perseverance, and beautiful heart.
