Our sympathies and heartfelt wishes for peace and comfort. On behalf of the Eastern Plains Rodeo Team and all of the youth organizations who had the support of David and Buzzards over the years. The impact of this support is wide and deep. Such a big loss for the community, but I hope his family knows how many people were touched by his kindness.
