Dear Rosie and family: Reva and I have been out of town for the last week and just discovered Dave's death from back issues of the Greeley Tribune. Of course, if we had been in town, we would have attended his funeral service as I always want to pay respect to former colleagues at UNC. But Dave was more than a colleague: he was a friend. I enjoyed him so much at the therapy pool and particularly enjoyed his recounting the successes of his kids and grandkids. What a bunch - especially to hear him tell it with pride and joy! I cannot describe how much I enjoyed Dave as a professional colleague - the very best in every sense of both of those terms. He was supportive when support was needed and a good critic when that was needed. The University is better because of his service, but , more importantly, he had a profound impact upon his students, both professionally and personally. He enriched their lives, as well as the lives of all of us who were lucky enough to know him. I will miss him. Please accept our deepest sympathies, Rosie and all the family whom we knew or even hadn't known. Your lives will be vacant, yet full of good memories and pride. Blessings as you face the future.
