David R. Christoff
BY Anonymous on Jun 30, 2006 | |  | Dave has touched my life in a way that could never be described. He's the epitome of what a Marine truely stands for. There will never be anyone like him. He will be survived by everyone that has met him. I've never met a Marine that deeply cared for his juniors more than himself. My condolences go out to everyone that has suffered this lose. The knowledge he has passed onto his Marines will stay with them while they carry on the fight.
SEMPER FIDELIS
The Christoff family has much to be proud of. We're all praying for you.
GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR STRENGTH.
