You can't dispute it, my nature we are drawn to some people more than others and this was no exception.
It took me DAYS to post this, for when I do, it makes it SO final. Does anyone else feel that way too. It's as though if you don't talk about it and don't write about it, he is still here...
I shall miss you TREMENDOUSLY, David Wagner. I am filling up with tears as I write this. I hate this, I really do.
David and I (and his dear wife, Selma), became very, very close over the last 8 years. David was one of my first contacts and we talked via email and phone, frequently. I shall miss hearing his sweet voice and words. Hard to believe I shant hear from him again. But I have very good memories and will be able to hear his voice in my documentary. So glad I got his story.
Selma called me the very next day and left a message telling me of his passing. It took me two days to call her back because...
She told me, "David thought the world of you.." Oh how my heart ached.
So to my wonderful friend. I love you and shall never, never forget you.
