Not sure what to say?

David was the student teacher at Downingtown High School, when there was no east or west, under Ron Ditzler. He used to ride to work on a motorcycle and all the girls thought he was adorable. Kind of like a Fonzi...before Fonzi existed.

His father was Dean of Music then, and...

I send my sincere condolences to the family of David A. Sprinkle. He was a renowned music scholar and an inspirational teacher.
His Madrigal group and Renaissance band performances put West Chester University on the map. I was honored to have been asked to chaperone this group on several occasions.

David and I had many things in common. We both graduated from West Chester, although at different times. He and I began our teaching careers at WCU at the same time. We became chairs...

I will remember Dave for being there in difficult times; always taking the time to listen and offer his experience, strength and hope to a fellow pilgrim like me. Until we meet again, my friend.

Dave's Family.
My sincerest condolences to the entire family. I had met Dave about 15 years ago
at a Palantine conference when he introduced himself and we realized we were related.
We were both descended from the Immigrant
Wilhelm Sprenckel. Dave was a kind and
thoughtful man. May he rest in peace.

Rest In Peace my friend. I will miss you.

Dr. Sprenkle had a lasting effect on my musical life. He was an inspiring educator and his passion for music came through in every moment I spent as his student. He was a kind person with a wonderful sense of humor. I can only hope to pass on his inspiration to my students. My thoughts are with his family.

Dave was such a calm and steady friend. I am so sorry for your family's loss.
