For David's 70th birthday, Camille and Steve made a video of the family's recollections about their dad and grandpa. Everyone answered questions like, "How are you like David?" "What have you learned from David?" and "What's your favorite story about David?" The answers were priceless. When asked how they were like their dad/grandpa, many family members said they loved their families, they got up early, or they liked to run. Bryce said, "We both love Grandma," and Steve said, "We're both married to wonderful women who spend too much money." The favorite stories covered the whole range of David's practical jokes--the Christmas tree in the gutter, the rocks on the table in St. George, the yellow snow, stealing power from the electric company. We laughed and laughed, and were very glad we have a part in David's life. Camille also showed photographs from her dad's many adventures.
