my family and i were also David's neighbors, my daughters were friends with all three boys, and spent many hours at their house, with them and their mother. the older boys werent at my house much, but David was, even tho he wasnt to cross the street, he would ride all the way to the house and call us from across the street, to come and get him. I remember his funeral like it was yesterday and his death was one of the main reasons i wanted OUT of Houston. We all knew that Austin did this terrible thing, but no way to prove it. How awful for Fay and her family, and sooooo sad were the faces of David's many friends at the funeral. i say burn Perry Allen Austin at the stake, cos no greater evil have i ever laid eyes on, and i DID lay eyes on him, i found out later, much to my horror. i will never know, i dont suppose, whether my daighters had anything to do with this monster before David's disappearance, but i dont want to know, now. it would give me nightmare either way. Im sure that any contact they had with him was only because he was THERE, and oh yes!! THERE he was, only 11 months after being released on mandatory EARLY release from prison!!!! Dear God!! Help us keep these monsters away from our children!!

My prayers still go to the family, if you ever read these.

I have often thought of this little boy. When it was announced on the news that he was missing, I thought I recognized him and contacted an investigator and offered to help. I also called his mother and offered to help. Years have gone by but I always think of little David and his family. I am now a mother and my heart goes out to his mother for the loss of a child. I will continue to pray for this family and although it has been so many years, I know it feels as if it were only yesterday. May God bless you until you are with David again.
