Please accept our thoughts, prayers and condolences. Dave was always such a kind person and I still remember the impression he made upon me when he was the head of the IFYE interview commitee when I was then a candidate.

It seems like yesterday that I was spending time with the Osborne family. Dave was a great man, one to truly admire. After losing my dad 20 years ago I still feel the pain as I am sure you will also for many years. I pray that the happy memories will soon overtake the sadness you have today. Peace be with each of you, I will be thinking of you today as you say your final goodbye- XO
