Although I dunno David in person. That picture I took of him left me a very sad feeling, as though I shoud've got to know him better. But I didnt. David will definitely be missed.

Hello to the family and friends of David. When my father had the chance to have a closer look at David and listened to his Suona solo performance (at Darling Harbour, Sydney) on a VCD brought back by his granddaughter who is a NYPCO member and also a close friend of David's, he gave his thumbs up for this talented young man who handled this unique musical instrument so well. He was shocked to learn of David's passing when I disclosed to him last evening and expressed in sadness how sudden and how in a hurry he left, and what a loss of a young soul and his incredible musical talent with the suona. We are people who have not met him in real life and he did not know who we are but we have felt the same loss and sadness just as much as his family and friends. I am writing this message because I love my niece very much and I know she is doing her best for herself and her CO friends to stay strong during this grieving times. David was one of her close friends and I want her to believe that he is in good hands and at a better place now. And each time she thinks of a great friend like him, she can look at the sky and I'm sure he is smiling down at her and all of his other friends and he wants all of you to know he is alright he is fine and he wants the same for all of you. Have peace with yourself and your hearts, he is now. God Bless!
