STONE, David P., chief executive officer for several community bank success stories in the Tampa Bay area and equally well-known for his work on community projects, lost a stubborn and ever-optimistic battle with pulmonary fibrosi Read Obituary
Merriam-Webster should include David's picture with its definition of "true friend." Whether it be his getting lost on the crowded streets around Churchill Downs at Kentucky Derby time . . . to his advice and help through some difficult personal issues . . . and to all of the good times we had, the memories will never fade. But the sadness of losing a good friend does not compare with the sorrow the loss has created for his family. My deepest sympathies for Debbie, Shannon, Susan and Pa Pa Bank's three pride-and-joys.
