Thanks for all your instruction Dave. In 1997, you began your 527 class at PSU with students providing unstructured (and inevitably divergent) responses to series of pictures from a coffee table book of yours.

Hi Dave, I thought I would talk to you some day about problem solving.....

Such a kind man, you will be missed.

What a life Dave has lived. I Thank God he came into your life Rose. You two together reflected perfectly what God wants everyone to experience. And that is love. The greatest human experience to behold. And your love was a perfect example for us all. Thanks for sharing with the world an example of God's gifts. Love Rita Marra Shaw
