Keith Gemerek wrote a sympathy message

“Greetings. I am sending belated condolences, having been out of touch. David was very helpful to my grandmother, Mabel Peck Gemerek, who was Alice's cousin. Both David and Alice were important to the extended Gemerek family. Extraordinary people, really. Life is short and we all get so busy. I recently visited Mount Pleasant Cemetery in Alexander and noticed David and Alice's gravestone. We are physically so far apart, but in our hearts very near. Keith Gemerek ([email protected])”
