David C. Kradel

To the Kradel Family,
Dr. Kradel was a very good friend and mentor to me will at NC State University. He helped me in my efforts to get into veterinary school and in my career after veterinary school. I will miss his Christmas letters and I am truley saddened by his passing. The world and myself are better for his having been here.

Dave was a very generous and kind man. He went out of his way when I needed him the most to travel to Greensburg to see my wife when he was visiting his aunt. You will always be a true friend for an old timer like me in need of a ride. May your chariot carry you through the gates of heaven for your duties there.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Dave was a very kind and generous man. He took my father to Greensburg many Sundays so that he could visit his wife who was in a nursing home. He will truly be missed by everyone. May God Bless you and be with you during your time of sorrow.

Dave and I were close friends in the early '60's when I was in grad school at PSU. I'll always remember his sincerity and friendliness. Condolances to his family.

Kradel Family,
On behalf of the Pennsylvania Veterinary Medical Association I wish to express my condolences at the loss of Dave. He was devoted to his profession, to the betterment of animal care and to service to society in general. I knew Dave from many years ago when I was a graduate student and then as a colleague. He was always a true gentleman, very sincere in his convictions, and firm in his desire to get something good done. He will be missed but fondly...

I have worked with Dave for the past 13 years and value him as a true friend. For the many trips and events that we traveled to and conducted, for the many political discussions, he always remained a true gentleman and scholar. I offer his family my deepest sympathies, I will miss him very much,
Mike Hulet
