    I had the privilege of working with David for many years at H-E-B. It was always a pleasure to be around him. He always had a smile for everyone. I had tremendous respect for him and was sad to hear of his passing. Condolences to his family. RIP David

    My deepest condolences to the Ochoa family. I met you all many moons ago and you kept us in your prayers when we needed it the most. Thank you so much for that love. David hired my husband Eloy, 32 yrs ago this August with HEB. He has always considered David a mentor & a wonderful friend. Sending so many blessings and much love. Our prayers are with you.
