YOUR PRESENCE HAS BEEN
REQUESTED
David
(Boyce) Rojas – You have
changed our lives forever
Date: Monday,
3 March, 2008
Location: Garden City, KS
I am starting this
announcement with a letter
from Deb. She has found a
way to say everything I
wanted to say and more.
Since David always wanted to
be a part of a mission, I
say we give him one.
Dearest Friends,
David's earthly chores were
done and it was time to go
home. As in everything David
did, he gave it his very,
very, best and I know that
he is receiving a beautiful
reward from God. I doubt I
will ever know totally why
all this happened to David
and why he was taken from us
but I do know that his
purpose on this earth was
this one final chore of
his...the chore was bringing
thousands (when I think of
the numbers I can't fathom)
of people together in
prayer...he inspired more
people than I will ever know
from the updates sent out,
we received many, many,
emails, visits, phone calls,
letters, cards, and Prayers
from all of you...think
about this, in a world where
many don't take the time to
pray, or to be really kind
to strangers because we are
so busy, we just don't have
time, but thousands were
inspired by David's fight
enough to pray often and
show kindness to a young man
they had never met...many
didn't know our family...I
would like to believe that
this brought the Lord
immense joy and he decided
that it was time for David
to come and receive his
reward in Heaven.
Our family will try to deal
with the freak accident that
brought us to this point but
I pray that we have all
learned one final lesson
from David that we will hold
close to our hearts...one
that is so very important to
God..."LOVE ONE
ANOTHER"...In the blink of
an eye, David, Special,
Beautiful, Pure, Loving,
David was taken. How many of
us have "things" left
unresolved with
family/friends...loved
ones???? Life is too
precious and as we found,
way too short to let this
happen...for David, and his
amazing fight, please take
the time, today, to tell
those who are in your heart
and important that you love
them, and if fences need
mending, mend them...it may
be your last earthly chore
too. As our family has
realized, nothing is more
important than FAITH,
FAMILY, FRIENDS...we don't
know if we have time
tomorrow what needs done
right now.
To all of our Family and
Friends...all who have
followed the updates on
David...WE LOVE YOU and
truly hope that we have a
chance to meet and hug many
of you on Monday as David's
life is honored and he is
laid to rest. I know how
important it was to David,
how badly he wanted to be a
part of writing the THANK
YOU to all of you...that is
why I waited so long to send
it...that chore isn't left
undone...I really believe
that when something
wonderful, beautiful and
unexplained happens in your
life, it will be our David
doing chores for our
Heavenly Father and saying
THANK YOU to each of you,
David rarely left work
undone and never anything so
important...be patient if it
takes awhile...remember how
many lives he touched.
To our Patriot Guard Riders
(Kansas & National)...David
is a Solider, a Solider of
God...Thank you for wanting
to honor him by escorting
his body to its resting
place...he always wanted to
ride a mission...he is
watching us Monday and
riding with you then and
always with Pride and
Respect...he knew the
importance of our Mission
and was happy to share his
father with you...
In a few days I will send
the final update of Day
55...David's last hours were
an amazing fight. So many of
you took this journey with
us and I want to share his
final fight and miracle with
you...I do this not only to
share but to help through
the grieving process...
Again I thank you all,
knowing that David brought
you together in prayer and
kindness will help all of us
through this very difficult
time. One final thank
you...THANK YOU, GOD, for
blessing me and allowing me
to be the mother of one of
your very special children.
Now I ask that you please
pray for our family.
With Love,
Ralph, Deb, DAVID, Levi,
Raquel, Luke and Maddie
Rojas
Keep the Rojas family in
your prayers and in your
hearts
