He became the spokesperson and Master of Ceremonies for the Venetian Hotel and Casino, hosting all of their events and game shows.

He described himself as a floral architect, designing the large displays that are currently seen in major Las Vegas casinos. He was honored by being asked to design the bouquet of roses for the 2010 Miss America Pageant. David entertained every person he met or passed by with a smile, a reason to laugh, a compliment, a gentle hand, or a song. He loved freely with his generosity to so many people. In all of his travels, David still considered North Little Rock his home and he was always so proud to tell people he was from Arkansas.
