David Allen Soderstrom

David was a very good man, dedicated civic leader, excellent architect, and though it have seemed otherwise actually a beloved partner with Will Martin.

I've just learned that David passed 5 years ago. I'm sorry not to have known. I was remembering he and Will Martin today, the great architecture they accomplished together. I'm sorry he's gone, he was a great friend and mentor to many.

Dave´s name just came to me a few minutes ago when I was playing the guitar. I was ignorant of the fact that he was doing architecture at Oregon until I read this obituary. I was a couple of years behind Doc when we met when I was either a freshman or a sophomore at Eugene. (I don´t recall how we met, however.) I believe he was down the alley, at the Sig Ep house, from where my dad lived at the time. Dave was a very talented musician and singer, and did duets with a guitar-playing...

Dear Luann, We were sorry to learn of David's passing. You are in our thoughts. I was glad to see you a year ago when you came to John M.'s memorial gathering. So now all three of M. S. & M. are gone-- but we have some fond memories of those days.

Whiskey, guitars, cigars, and BB guns! Creativity that came from the place where you've gone. So much fun! Good bye old friend!!

I met 'Doc' for the first time in 1945 (we were in the first grade) when my family moved back to the homestead on Cabbage Hill north of Springdale after the War.
Doc, David Dunkin and I were like three peas in a Pod all the way through High School ( Corbett, Class of 1957) Donnie Stubbs joined our Pod when his family moved to Corbett when we were Sophomores.
We use to ride our bikes all over the place. One of our favorites was to ride up the Larch Mt. Rd to Louden Rd and then...

Dear Luann, my condolences to David's death. He and I made a lot of early history from 1963 through the 1980's. Great memories. Roland Haertl

We were so sorry to learn of Dave's passing. Jim and I have fond memories of you both.
