I'm really sad to hear that. Dave was a great guy. I enjoyed talking to him
and appreciated his sly humor. I guess he had a premonition about his death
because he mentioned to me the last time I saw him that he might not be around
much longer. Another great rocket guy has gone to the great launch pad in the
sky. Fly high Dave!
I bought a ten foot parachute from him last year. I am going to fly it at
Rocstock in his honor.
