DAVID G. HARTWELL

So sorry to have just learned of David's passing. He was a fine gentleman who will be greatly missed. Best to his family.

My wife Susan and I send our condolences to Dave's wife and children on the passing their husband and father. I was a classmate and Zeta Psi fraternity brother of Dave's at Williams and have very fond memories of him as an ever-friendly and fun-loving guy. He was the same person at our reunions, and I will truly miss seeing him in the future. Life is precious and unpredictable. Dave had hoped to live into his nineties as his parents had, and as he said, "it seems a reasonable expectation."It...

I saw and would say Hi to David Hartwell at least once a year for more years than I can recall. He was a Master Craftsman and acknowledged as such during his life time. He and Kathryn were a lovely couple. I will miss seeing his smile and hearing his hello - also seeing his coat of many colors flash through the book dealer's room.

Back in the 70's David allowed my husband, our friend Tom and myself to use their apartment for an interview with Harry Harrison since he was staying at a nearby men's club and I could not be allowed in. He not only helped with the interview, he also invited us to spend the night instead of driving straight home to RI so late at night. What a kind and generous man! He will certainly be missed by his family, friends and fans. Count me among the later. May he rest in peace.

I remember David bringing his kids to various convention and spending time both minding them and minding others. He was always a gracious friend. He is already greatly missed.

David Hartwell was always a kind and fun person. Had a unique sense of style which we all appreciated. He will be missed professionally and personally by all. My deepest condolences

David Hartwell was a very caring and sweet man. He will be greatly missed. My sympathy to all his family.

David Hartwell was always been a supportive presence in the SF&F field. He was one of the very first people I was introduced to. Over the years and through my graduate education, I looked to him for remediation in my reading--every year I would pick up a dozen tattered paperbacks by authors who helped build the field. Then at some point I started arguing with him. He knew more but I had my own opinion. He'd mentor anyone who'd listen.

David was a rare and unique person who will be sorely missed. My condolences.
