My condolences to the family. I never met David but I did see his BMW motorcycle that his brother Rudy drive over to my place. I believe Rudy pointed out his home on Portage out once. I never did stop by to visit but I would always think of Rudy when I passed. I wasn’t sure if David would have welcomed a stranger showing up on his door step. My loss. I also had the pleasure of meeting David’s mother when Rudy was living at his mom’s home. - Posted by: Michael nickerson (A friend of his brother rudy) on: Oct 19, 2026

I like to Extend My Deepest Condolences to the Reisel Family. David and I attended Greenway School, Grade 6. Me and David did a cartoon for the School paper, and I remember fondly, what David Drew,a character sitting on a motorcycle with monkey bars, and that stood in my head for ever. The Love for Motorbikes was incredible for David. God Bless! David. till we meet again! - Posted by: Tony Guzzi (grade 6 together) on: Oct 12, 2026
