Not sure what to say?

I was David Dunning's next door neighbor on Park Drive, St Clairsville, Ohio. He was the last of the Dunning Brothers, Ed with a car agency in St.Clairsville and handsome Duncan, over which girls regularly swooned. David was a sweet young man who was very close to his widowed mother, a good friend of my mother, Ruth. David's family survived the loss of their country home through a raging fire. This incident made a marked impression on young David. He realized at an early age that things...

David literally changed my life 22 years ago. He guided me through a reframing of my consulting practice that led to work that's continued to be exhilirating--and he continued to encourage and mentor me along the way. I will continue to miss him and to be grateful for having known him.

We have known David for a long time. He officiated both our children. He will always fondly in our hearts.

I love you!

They say Big Dave used to come feed me when I was a baby, before he went to school. Now that is a wonderful young man destined for greatness. Our Big Dave was great in the eyes of many. I was so proud when he performed our marriage ceremony almost 45 years ago. He was a very wise man and I will miss him greatly. I will really miss his wonderful laugh and would love to hear it one more time. I will hear it in Heaven!

David christened both of our children, one on Super Bowl Sunday in 1975, and the other on Super Bowl Sunday 1980.

We remember him fondly, and offer our condolences.

He truly was a leader for all of his lifetime.

Big Dave, most of my memories come from Dunning family reunions, but they are powerful and vivid ones. At the most recent get-together, in GA, we spoke at length about about my career, how I do what I do, and what measures NFL teams take to do their psychological homework on prospects. You were full of knowledge and much smarter than me on the topic, but made me feel as if I was moving mountains with my work. It made me feel very special, and I imagine you made thousands of people feel the...

We received sad news last week that Dr. Dunning had passed. He was a trusted advisor to GeoEngineers for most of the past 25 years and touched many of our staff directly and indirectly.

David served as a leadership consultant, coach, teacher and true friend of the organization. He had a profound influence on the development of the firm and those of us who had the benefit of his training and counsel.

David advised us during each of our executive leadership selections and...
