I was saddened to hear of Dave's passing, but having spoken with him earlier this year, I know how difficult this battle was. As always, Dave did his very best.

It was a distinct pleasure to have known this bright, honorable and wonderful man.

We enjoyed professional challenges together, but we always enjoyed each other' s friendhip as well. We are all poorer for having lost Dave.

Please accept my deepest sympathies on your loss.

Dave became a friend with the merger of Pacific Northwest Pipeline and El Paso Natural Gas Company.

We worked on many pipeline valuation issues, on many committees and at the Wichita State University sponsored Public Utilities Workshop over the years. I enjoyed working with him.

We mourn with you at your loss. Your entire family is in our thoughts and prayers.

The personnel in Room Service at the Huntsman Cancer Hospital would like to express their deepest condolences on the passing of Mr. Shank. We enjoyed so much serving him and his wife - it was always an enjoyable experience to go into his room. He had such a wonderful spirit and sense of humor. All our best wishes go out to his dear wife and family. It was wonderful having you here with us.
