He is very proud that one of his patients was a March of Dimes Poster Child. "The happiest people are those who think the most interesting thoughts. Those who decide to use leisure as a means of mental development, who love good music, good books, good pictures, good company, good conversation, are the happiest people in the world. And they are not only happy in themselves; they are the cause of happiness in others." ~ William Lyon Phelps David is a native of Norfolk. He has a wife of twenty-one years and two wonderful sons, ages 9 and 11. He feels strongly that children be taught in a safe, loving, Christian environment where they can grow as individuals and learn respect for others. This is the reason his sons are students at Saint Patrick and why he chose to join the staff. When David is greeted with "How are you today?", and he responds "Fabulous, thanks for asking," he is being genuine. He is a eight-year cancer survivor who is happy to be alive and surrounded by people he respects and loves. |
