Mr. David Rushlow

...let me try this again, OK, Phil & Lee?

I shall never forget the fine times I had
with David, my friend, boss, and mentor.
DLR had such a fun, creative spirit...
he truly inspired me! And David treated
me like a little brother. I was so for-
tunate to have known him in this crazy
life! I so look forward to seeing him
in the next... Yes! Working with David,
Lee & Phil, in the 70's was great! They
were just so cool, y'know? That's why
I drew that fun caricature of the 3hree!
Phil & Lee, my thoughts are with you two.
All the best!!!

I just learned of David's death and want to express my deepest condolences to Phil and Lee. With the strong bond the G3 three always had, I know this void in your hearts will be impossible to fill.

Mr. Rushlow & Lee, I remember your family well for those years that I worked for Bonnie. I have often thought of you all and wondered where the winds have taken you and everyone I met at the Wig salon.

My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I just found out about David's death. Seeing his picture brought the biggest smile to my face because that's what he always gave to me. What fun we had back in the 70's in Ft. Lauderdale and Hollywood. His influence lasts a lifetime. My condolences to his family and the many other people who loved him.

In loving memory of my friend David, who I will never forget. David brought so much to my life, he was always there for me and made me a better person for knowing him. I will miss him and our many talks forever and ever. Peace to David's family and other friends.

Our deepest sympathy is extended to David's father, brother, and all members of his family. We were a year behind Dave at Lauderdale High, and the vivid memory I have was he was always watching out for us, much like an older brother would. We had some great times, and always knew we could count on Dave if we ever needed him...he had our backs, and we ( Neville Cutting, Toby Ellis, Biff Trimble and others ) always knew that.
God be with you David.

David and his family were a big part of a wonderful time in my life. I'll fondly remember his priceless humor and inimitable style, and treasure our friendship always.

Wir haben mit tiefer Betroffenheit von David´s Tod erfahren. Leider war unser Treffen mit ihm nur von kurzer Dauer, aber trotzdem hat er durch seine liebenswerte Art einen bleibenden Eindruck auf uns gemacht. Wir teilen mit Euch die Trauer um ihn und umarmen Euch in Gedanken. Für die Zukunft wünschen wir Euch viel Kraft. Auch an Phil alle guten Wünsche. Unser Mitgefühl ist mit Euch.

Hermi & Robert und aufrichtige Anteilnahme auch von Stephan.

Dave was the first friend that I made after moving to Florida with my family. I guess we were 15 because we were on foot in South Beach. We roamed the beach and were there for the last days of the coffee houses up by the Elbow Room. Our lives diverged and I lost touch with Dave, but he was always a friend.

Dave was a gem! I remember him from Head To Toe in Ft. Lauderdale during the 1970's and traveling to Key West and several other places. May God bless his loved ones. He was, as someone else posted, a free spirit.

We became close to the Rushlow's when they built their G-3 office building on 14th Street Causeway and were very impressed with how well Phil, David and Lee worked together. "What a Team" . We haven't seen David for many years but know what a joy he was to those around him. Our heartfelt sympathy to Phil and Lee.

Uncle David! Even though he wasn't tequnically my uncle, he is in my heart. Some of my best memories growing up were when he came to visit my dad or when we had family vacations visiting him. In March of this past year he welcomngly opened up his house to me and a few college girlfreinds for our spring break, once again another memory I will never forget! We love you David....~Love Trouble~

Supremely intellegent, handsome, funny, warm and kind, those are just a few of the adjectives that describe my dear cousin David. He will forever remain as "the brightest thing in our Museum of Recollections". With a heavy heart, I say goodbye for now David, I know we'll get together again at that 'great place' you now call home. All my love and condolences to our family and all his faithful friends.

To say goodbye to one of my best friends on earth is one of the hardest things I can progbably ever write about....so I choose to say, I will see you later. David was my Peter Pan, he always saw things so differently and seeing them threw his eyes was an incredable adventure. I can only say how blessed I have been to have him have invited me on so many of his rides of life. I love you David, always have, always will. Diane Bosler

Dave gave new meaning to the word "free spirit." We graduated from FLHS together and sang in Choristers together. Other than a reunion or two I have not seen Dave for years but I will always remember him fondly.

Wir bedauern ausserordentlich das viel zu fruehe Ableben von David. Als parents in law von seinem Bruder Lee durften wir David als liebenswuerdigen und sympathischen Menschen kennenlernen. Wir werden die verschiedenen familiaeren Zusammentreffen mit ihm in Bregenz/Austria und Asheville immer in ehrender Erinnerung behalten. Walter und Linde, Bregenz/Austria

My husband and I knew David in the 70's, and we have very fond memories. Michael and David were able to reconnect at John's wedding and ride bikes together. We just never got to visit him in FL as intended. David was truly unique and has left us way too soon.

Best of friends for over 20 years. We worked together (and made some really great TV commercials), played together, argued politics together and even went skiing together. To just say you will be missed somehow seems so totally inadequate.

I had the pleasure of calling David a friend and the privilege of traveling with him on group motorcyle trips. What a joy he was. He was the first to be there if you needed help and always ready with a joke and a smile. David...you will be missed.

Dear David

There is not a wedding anniversary that we do not think of you and your kindness of using your home and all the kind words that has kept us together.
The awesome Christmass and unselfish giving will never be forgotten.
We will be greatly missed

Truly,
Brad & Karen Miller
Tampa, Florida

p.s. we are still married

The world has lost someone very special
Uncle Phil and family we are very sad for you all
Barry Slater and Dad

I lived across the street from Dave when we were in high school, and although we lost touch over the years, I will always remember him fondly. He was so easy-going, sweet, funny, kind and unselfish. My heartfelt sympathy goes out to his family and friends for the loss of such a wonderful man.

"In loyal devotion
Remembering thine days"
God Bless You and your loving family.

David, and David's life, was like an epic masterpiece tale, Shakesperian perhaps in that it ended tragically, although what we remember is not the end. Homer comes to mind, in that we have a hero, always searching, his life a journey, marked by great achievements, family loyalty, a true heart, enduring friendships, romance and love, humor and insight. This book, it seems to me, nobody got to read from cover to cover. Each one of us were allowed to read chapters, sometimes consecutive, sometimes separated, always the best book we've ever read, and we all thirst for the next page. I think today we will each get a glimpse into the pages we never read as we exchange stories, and laugh and cry together.

The chapters I have are called "Uncle" and they span 40 years. David, you helped to form who I am, and I will never forget all that you gave me, including my nickname that was special between you and me. I know you loved me and my family with all of your heart.

I know that your Heaven has a salt shaker on every table, a diner on every corner, a joke told every minute (yes, even dirty ones!), an interesting artifact in every crevice, Laurel and Hardy in every theater, beautiful art on every wall, and of course all of your family that awaited your arrival, including your most precious shining star, Gaga.

I know I will see you again, David. I love you.

I enjoyed working with David about 20 years ago. He was creative, funny and very intelligent. He is gone but won't be forgotten.

R.I.P.

We will all miss you, David.

My Brother-in-Law, my swaguere, my friend. Brilliant to the end. Charming & witty one moment, with a wink & twinkle in his eye open & sincere the next. Fortunate to have kept in contact with David these many years I am better for the experience.
In life there is no such thing as "perfection", however in it's pursuit we may achieve excellence.

Please accept our deepest sympathy from the Canadian connection. We have many many fond memories. Mary and family

David was very impressionable to me when I worked at G3. I was fortunate to have worked closely with him and his teams for four years. As well, I got to know him as a person and was inspired by insights he shared with me. I learned how to solve problems through a creative approach, to read people and understand what drives them, and how to connect with their thinking. He was a voracious reader and could talk about any subject and always had a great story to tell an audience. He made a difference and changed many lives. His ideas and creative inspiration was moving and memorable. Those times I've carried with me and am all the better for it.

We had great times on our motorcycle trips - Dave was always a constant source of entertainment - and he could ride!

R.I.P.

Always remembered in high school as an outgoing , personable looked up to kind of guy. My deepest condolences.

This note is for David's Dad and David's brother. I new David for a short three years. Once in a while I would catch him at lunch with Dr. Strand, Dr. Kitson, and Phil. He was so interesting on many many subjects and we both enjoyed bridging a gap. We were the Young guys and helped those older fellas ...80ish... to maintain their grip on what riviting eye opening event or product may be around the corner or happened just last week. His seat will never be filled.
