To David's family, HIs service to the country in the United States military is admired and appreciated by all Americans. His work in civilian life personifies the highest principles of "men and women for others" that we learned at Holy Cross. I am sorry for your loss. God bless you all.

Dave was a friend and outstanding gentleman that I had the good fortune to meet freshman year at HC. Later our paths crossed when he lived in RI. Always quick with a smile and conversation I always enjoyed his company.
My condolences to the entire Clopek clan.
