Not sure what to say?

Dave and I quaffed quite a few cold ones while in and out of the Navy. I know Dave loved his work and my wife and I always enjoyed his sense of humor. I literally don't know how may times Dave lent me his Fiat when he and I were stationed in Coronado, CA. and I was dating my wife to be. I will always be grateful to Dave, his Fiat, and Pizza Galore! This cold one is for you pal! See you on the other side.

We will treasure your visits to Reservoir F. Rest in peace.

Dave, I enjoyed the walks we took together and the conversations we had.

I knew Dave as a dedicated member of Kennedy Club Fitness in SLO. He was always cheerful, friendly, and boy could he shake it with the best in class. He will be missed by many.

David will be missed by many folks who depended upon his objective, thorough and well written environmental articles. I was lucky enough to have known him for many years and always respected his desire to fully research his articles before publishing. He was trustworthy and pleasantly persistent on getting his information right and not afraid to tackle difficult environmental issues. Rest In peace!

David was kind, smart and funny, the perfect book group member. He cared about the world and worked hard to make a difference. We have lost a good friend and a great journalist.

I always looked forward to chatting with Dave on Sunday mornings at our dance class at Kennedy Gym in SLO. He was friendly, intelligent, and kind. He loved the cardio dance class and his presence will be sorely missed. My condolences to his family

I am very sorry to hear about David's early passing. Over the years, we talked several times about Diablo Canyon, specifically it's nuclear waste problems. He had an open mind and a rare willingness to learn about complicated issues. He will be sorely missed.

David was kind, courteous, respectful and a good listener. He was interested in the community, and helped keep the community educated and informed. He will be missed!
