My sincere condolences to David's family. I knew David since Kindergarten. We went to the Plains school and graduated together. He would always be so kind, always smiling and sang a great "Rosalita" at karaoke. We all had a great time. I just learned of his passing as I now live out of state. I was very shocked and sad to read this obituary. God keep him in your care.

To the Julian family, my condolences to you in the recent loss of your loved one, DJ. Having grown up in Milford we get to know one another early in life and I'm happy to say I've known David for many years, starting with Little League and his time on the Foggiano Club. School also brought us together as did other social events in our lives. I loved DJ. He was friendly, funny, quick on his feet and with his hands and that smile got you all the time! I've haven't seen Dave in years, but memories come rushing back when I think of his name. DJ, may you rest in peace and I'm sure the many memories family and friends have of you will last them and us all for a lifetime. God Bless. Andy Anderson
