Hi Dawn, I will do my best, but it may take a little while as I thought I had an e-mail address for David but I don't. He travels around quite a lot with his acting career. David's father Barry lives in B.C. and I have an e-mail address for him, so I will contact him for info re David and maybe reach him that way. Gayle ----- Original Message ----- From: "P.F. & D.
