Prayerful Memories of David and His Family. I was a friend of Davids for many years. We had a great communication friendship and discussions of life and the world and our experiences! We floated the Buffalo River and Camped out with friends, and Hiked many beautiful places in Arkansas. Conversations and Music playing the Congos together. He was a very interesting Naturalist and wonderful man and friend. He loved his Parents and Family very much. A place in my Heart for Him and his Family. A Friend ...Debra Lynn Reynolds

I came upon this website while thinking about the 10th anniversary of the day we lost Brother Dave.

Am a bit conflicted - when my father passed last February, a site like this would have cost the family. My dad was clear not to spend money on that. But Dave passed so young, we never talked about such things.

Anyway, if anyone wants to know what a truly awesome guy he was, contact me on Facebook. If the family is paying for this 10 years later, let me know and I can copy all the comments and post them free, somewhere, from now on.

Robin Ingenthron, whose best friend was Dave Reilly.

I never personally met David, but he'd become an "online" friend of mine for the last year and a half. We hadn't talked in the last couple months and I was shocked to learn of his death. He was a wonderful person who always made me smile with the sweet things he always had to say. I'm sorry I never got the chance to meet him face to face. And I'm deeply sorry for your loss.

I am very sorry to hear that David has passed away. I always thought very highly of David. I had the pleasure of hiring him at Regal Ware, I went to his graduation, went fishing with him on the Little Red River, helped him move along with a number of other good times and memories. He was a good man and we shall all miss him very much.

With deepest sympathy,
Tom Cuiray

I worked with Dave at L'Oreal for five years, he trained me when I first started and we continued to work well until I moved to FL a year ago.

I considered Dave to be a dear friend and I am deeply saddened at his death. I always loved to see his vacation pictures. One of my favorites was when he was in Mexico and went "flying" through the trees.

That's the image I hold in front of me today, he has all of his safety gear on, dark sunglasses, bandana and smile!

Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Sincerely

Debbie
