Not sure what to say?

you will always be "my eagle in the sky"

I will miss my dear friend who I shared many fine adventures with...like raising teenagers, caring for geese and goats, gardening, backpacking, restoring a farmhouse, building a yurt and pondering deep thoughts. Your gentle soul lives on in all of us who loved you.

From the “Call of the Wild” to “Call me Ishmael” our lives were touched by David's stories and his passion to write them, to share them and to live them in the secret ways we will when we are touched by something bigger than ourselves. From stock broker to adventurer to poet what journey you make: Ahoy David, Ahoy!

I lit a candle for you, David-just about the time when you must have decided to leave this earth. We shared much in our lives-our friendship outlasted physical distance-I will never forget when we danced to celebrate when the first man stepped onto the moon...when we tried to make fish soup for our friends in Niantic...you enriched my life and that of my kids. We shall never forget your deep voice telling stories and reciting poetry.

May you hold onto the fond memories of your father and grandfather.

A beautiful and tender man who will be missed by all whose lives he touched
