just letting you know that david and howie havent been forgotten. and you my dear sister youre in my prayers. i thank the lord for the strenght that he continue to give you and the rest of the family. you and your family are dearly loved. with lots of love marty and family

I've know david for over two two decades, I have not seen him in years but I still remember that magical smile that generated so much happiness.  David had gone through so much pain and physical challenges throuhout his life But Davide loved the Lord and trusted with all his heart.  God kept him until He called him home. 

From Abraham, Janette, Gabriella and Judy 

A friend, a brother, ad a son, you'll be missed for days to come.  Fly away my brother, fly away.  I never thought this day would come, when I would have to say goodbye.  You're a "Hall of Famer" in our hearts today, leavng behind loving thoughts that will live on.

You've touched many hearts in our 29 years.  Our eyes are filled with tears, wishing you were here.  You've graduated to a level that we are trying to reach, a place that you will shine, leaving all your problems behind.  Fly my brother, fly.  Fly into the arms that have been holding you all this time.

This is not what we had in mind.  We wanted more of you.  Wishing we could turn back the hands of time, if only we could repeat the days of yesterday and rewind the memories of all the years you've left behind.  We would laugh, play, pray together as if it were today.  You'll be missed, but not forgotten.  It's so hard to say goodbye. 

My heart is filled with sorrows, but overflowing with love for you.  You are definitely one of a kind.  Mr. David Edward Sabastian Bandoo, I just wanted to say we love you and miss you too. 

Farewell little brother, farewell.

Philippians 1:2
Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Bandoo Family,

May the peace of God shower you as you go through the pain of missing David.  God will give you peace that surpasseth all understanding that will guard your heart and mind through Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.) In other words, he will give you peace even when it does not make sense for you to have peace. 

In closing, I know it does not make for you to have peace right now but God is powerful enough to give it you.  If you can believe it, then you can receive it.

Peace,

Pastor Karl "The Rev" Anderson

 Philippians 4:9
Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.
