Dave (I want to call you Gerb, so I will). To say I will miss you is a monumental understatement. You and Nancy have been part of My and Maria's life. Guitars, singing, and long discussions about esoteric subjects and a human connection that represented a place where I could come to and share our mutual awe at the Cosmos and all of its manifestations. You are still with me and always will be. Norm (Snarkle) Davis

My sincere condolences to all of Dave's family, loved ones & friends. He was, and will continue to be, a positive influence in my life. Once he said to me... "I never met a rock I didn't like". Since that day, I am always reminded of him, his wit, his humor, his wisdom... in every rock surrounding me.

Nancy, our deepest sympathies to you and your family. We cherished the wonderful times we shared, and David's absence leaves a void in our Clarks club. From meetups to dinners and crazy 8s, those moments are indelibly etched in our memories. David was truly special, and we find it difficult to accept that he's no longer with us. He will always hold a special place in our hearts.. Mike and Lena

So sad. David was witty and unique, observant and full of life. He had many diverse talents and a great sense of humor. I looked forward to seeing him at Scribblers each time I went and was disappointed if he didn't attend. I'm glad he and Nancy had a lot of fantastic vacations.
