paul wilson wrote a sympathy message

“I am very saddened to hear of David's death and sorry not to be able to attend the service. David was a wonderful mentor to many students at Emmanuel College. He had an amazing memory, not least for theological and administrative detail. I loved his sense of humour and his dedication to Jesus Christ. Deanna joins me in expressing gratitude for his life and prayers for the comforting presence of the Holy Spirit for Leslie and his family. Paul Scott Wilson”
