David Irwin

I never had Dave as a teacher while attending Madison West HS but got to know him once I was on staff at West. He was a great guy, great teacher and great guy. He belongs in heaven. Happy Holidays in Heaven, Dave. Terry

I was a student of David's at Central High School and remained friends with David and Kathy through the years. I enjoyed both of them very much. My condolences to their family.

David was a devoted member of Madison Teachers Inc, an MTI Representative for West High School, and a member of MTI´s Bargaining Committee, and a Union leader for many years, where his insight was insight was so very valuable. John Matthews

Dave was a great enthusiast teacher, I had him at Central and my sister had him at West. RIP Dave and thank you for your wisdom

Mr. Irwin was one of my teachers at Madison West. Never condescending, never dismissive, he treated me--and all students--with kind, adult respect. I am now seventy years old. I have been fortunate to have found some truly fine, patient teachers along the way. Mr. Irwin was one of these for me. A teacher, in the fullest and truest sense of the word. I am honored to write this tribute to him to share with his family, and deeply saddened to learn of his passing. Steve Myrland Madison West...
