I had to look twice at David's face when I saw this posting. I met Mr. Grisham when I was a work-study student at the Computer Information Resource Technology center at the University of New Mexico in the early 1990s. One of my duties was (what I thought at the time) the mundane delivery of mail and messages to the CIRT staff . . . one of whom was David Grisham. To be sure, the first thing I noticed was that David was paralyzed and in a wheelchair. The second thing I noticed was that David was incredibly intelligent, witty, and a diligent professional. I made it a point to take David's mail to his office whenever I could because he always had a quip, a joke, or interesting story to tell. In fact, David's character made me forget he was paralyzed . . . he was simply bigger than his physical condition. If I'm not mistaken, some of the staff at the CIRT referred to David affectionately as "Grish." I always called him Mr. Grisham. Be at peace Mr. Grisham.
