David was a proud father, husband, son, brother and Union Iron Worker. He lived life fully. He was kind and generous. His final act of generosity saved three people.
He was taken from us way too soon. He will truly be missed by many.
I am blessed he picked me to be his wife.
How do you say how much someone meant to you in a few short words?
We miss you more every day…
I miss you everyday my dear son. Words cannot express my total emptiness since your passing. I’m so proud of you for the unselfish act of giving life to others. I will always carry you in my heart. I love you David Pate
I have so many great memories of my brother he was the light of the family and I will cherish every moment. Your unselfish act of becoming a donor goes to prove the love and heart you had for others and I am so proud to be your sister. I miss you so much David!! Never stop, Never change
Three months ago we lost a huge piece of our hearts. I try to remember that three months ago my husband saved three people and save three familys from heartbreak. He has alway been my hero and now he is a hero to many more.
My name is Jesse and I have reason to believe David is my brother which makes this all the more heartbreaking. I’m hoping someone can respond as I have so many questions.
David, I did not know you, but I saw a small memorial for you along the Harrison Greenway yeterday. What an honorable thing to do as an organ donor. Your spirit lives on in others.
