David C. Pause

Truly an inspiration to every student he taught. Where he saw a need he filled it. Where he saw potential he nurtured it. I am definitely honored to have been one of his students. Class of 74 DECA president. I´m sure the gates of heaven stand wide open. Heartfelt condolences to his family

Dave and I worked for Enterprise Rental Cars, shuttling the cars around a good part of the known world. Driving with Dave was always a pleasure. He'll be missed.

What a nice, kind man and teacher. Mont Pleasant HS class of 1969

Until recently my husband and I lived in the neighborhood and I would frequently meet Dave while walking on the street with his little white dog Channel. We would stop and chat for awhile and he´d lovingly talk about his kids and his dear wife. He was a warm person and always had such a nice smile! May you Rest in Peace Dave.

Played basketball with brother Bruce. Got to know him , through Bruce. Dave played golf at Schenectady Muni and we would run into each other and just talk about work and the past. RIP Dave

RIP Mr Pause...

I met Dave at "Albany State" in the fall of 1959 when I was a transfer student from Clarkson. He was two years older than I was, and we were both members of the same fraternity [Potter Club]. Following college [I was Class of 1963], we remained in contact even after Dave and Carol were married. My wife, JoAnn, and I would meet Dave and Carol for lunch - usually at the Olde Bryan Inn at Saratoga- every few years. I forgot to mention that Dave was the best man at our wedding in 1966. Yes,...
