I worked for Dave as a contractor. He was a true professional and a gentleman and treated me fairly. It was a shock to learn of his passing. He was always so vital and full of life. Rest In Peace Admiral. Ed Dalrymple USN/TRW

This is Henry Netzer in Hayden, Idaho. I am shocked, sobered and saddened at the news. Dave and I were company mates, shared the same major, were both Submariners. He was in our wedding in Wisconsin 4 days after graduation (see pic). We would talk periodically and see each other at unplanned times. We ended up on the same plane from San Fran to DC to take the engineer´s exam. And we saw each other at the airport a few times. Dave was always upbeat and positive. I will miss that. We all...
