I was hoping to catch up with David. I was part of David's Study Group at the University of Phoenix. Too much time has passed. We had much fun working on those UofP projects together. I will miss David. I am so sorry for your loss. He was a good man...

Dave,
I can't believe it's been 6 months since I lost you. I told you that day that I didn't even know all the ways I would miss you. I'm still finding more.
Love always,
Marlene

I was so sorry to hear about Dave's passing. He always seemed to have a smile and found the fun in almost any situation (including work!)

Marlene: I was shock to hear of Dave's sudden passing. My memories go all the way back to the proposal days in Canoga Park, in 1979 I believe. The Tucson producibility group fighting (just kidding here) the CP powers to get what we needed with Dave leading the way. The days in Micro were fun also. Sorry I couldn't be there on Saturday to celebrate Dave's life but my thought and prayers are with you and your family.

Connie and I were very sad to hear of Dave's sudden passing. His infectious smile and laugh had a positive effect on everyone he met. Dave's memory will live on in our hearts and the hearts of all who grew to know him.

Marlene,
Dave was my first mentor at Hughes, and taught me many valuable lessons. He inspired me to become a Project Engineer, and that launched my career. I'll miss his laugh and smile and how good he always made everyone feel.

Marlene and Family,
I am so sorry for your loss.
I was in the office next to Dave, the man in black. It was the privilege of all of us to work with him and we shall miss him.
I had given him a Dave Dudley "Six Days on the Road" CD and he was ready to roll with it in his RV.
Let's roll with Dave.

I handled student evaluations for two of his courses, and I never saw anything less than the highest marks. He was an absolutely top-flight instructor. May his memory be eternal.

Marlene and family.
It's still hard to absorb the reality of Dave's sudden passing. I find myself thinking of him often. He and I were in the 1998 New Faculty Learning Academy together when we started teaching full time at Pima. We found a common ground since we had both worked at Hughes Tucson and Canoga Park. Dave's office at Pima is only a few doors down from mine -- I really miss his stopping by to say "Hi" or "Have a good weekend". He was looking forward to coming to my book signing, and we had talked about meeting up in Spain this Spring. Unfortunately, I won't be able to join you in the Celebration of Dave's life because I'll be out of town that day. I can only imagine it will be a wonderful tribute. It would have been nice to meet you, Marlene, since Dave spoke so highly of you. Sending positive healing thoughts your way...Hugs--tc

My deepest sympathy, Marlene. Dave and I shared the poker experience on many occasions, and he helped me survive my courses in C/C++/C#, when I was ready to go jump off a bridge somewhere until the little light finally went on thanks to him. He made my life better, which is the highest praise I know how to give.

I am saddened by the loss of a great person! I first met Dave in 1998. He helped me find my true love of computers. I was both a student and co-worker of his at Pima until 2002. We shared many debates in jest about football, among other topics, he as a Packers fan and me as a Bears fan. It was always a good time in the fall. I am so happy he made it to Lambeau field. What an experience that must have been for him.
My heart felt sympathies for your family and all that knew him. Dave will be missed greatly.
God bless!

Dear Marlene,
Candace and I were surprised by the notice of Dave's death. Please accept our sympathies. I recall with fond memories the times we enjoyed at Hughes Aircraft and the Wednesday golf with other retirees. Dave had a wonderful sense of humor and a great outlook on life. He will be missed.
