I am so sad that it’s taken two years after Dave’s passing away for me to find out he is no more in this world. He was a wonderful colleague, who helped me, a junior colleague in his department, enormously in the early stages of my career.

I will cherish my warm and happy memories of those years when we started initiatives together, and shared some good times with the late Dean Cohen who valued Dave’s contributions to our college.

He was humble and kind and helpful and I am sorry we weren’t able to stay in touch after he retired.

May he rest in peace.
