David Forrest Gregory
David 's legacy is many fold. It is the silent courageous life efforts which touch lives on deep meaningful levels. He survived emotionally through many disappointments, tragedy, loneliness, challenges, and physical hurdles.
So, in my opinion , his legacy is one of courage, determination and a tremendous sense of what is good and true. David has taught me to be more courageous, more true to myself and he showed me how not to worry about what others think of you. We cared about what each other thought of us and we grew and survived and loved that way.
He spent many years studying and teaching Karate. He was a member of the International Okinawan Goju-Ryu Karate-Do Federation. As a member he passed on the profound teachings of Goju-Ryu founder Chojun Miyagi Sensei.
David was employed in many different types of jobs, placing high expectations upon himself and giving all his energy towards whatever he was doing.
He was always striving to improve and learn. He loved Mathematics and flowed this study through to Computer Science. He was working hard to become CISCO Certified which required a lot of dedication but it would have gotten him recognized in the field of the computer world.
If you give true love to someone, then they become a legacy of sorts as you have affected and changed their lives. Therefore , one of David's legacies is me (Carol). I can not speak for anyone else as to how his lifetime, this life has affected them. I can only tell you that he was my saviour , is my angel, and will always be my best friend and soulmate. We have lived many lifetimes together and are always together in our hearts.
