Steve and Leslie Lucero had the honor and the pleasure to have been able to live and care for David Rogers at the Delamo Mobil home park for a few years. He was the perfect gentleman and we became great friends. All of my friends also loved him and we had some great celebrations with David including his birthdays! He had nicknames for all of us! He called me Wild Bill and my husband Bat Masterson! There was also twisted legs -Lynn and tattoo girl Alicia who were just a few of our friends who loved him as well. We had a nickname for him and we called him
(THE GOVERNOR). They truly were the best times of our lives! We all miss him so! But we know that one day we will meet again! See you on the other side GOV! Much luv!!
