How elegant "Spud" was his cane, but along with that came his wicked sense of humor. You never knew whether to be subdued or laugh. He will be missed.

It was my pleasure to have worked with David for 15 years as his personal assistant. I have wonderful memories of funny chats over the breakfast table as I visited him in the morning hours to do our weekly business. His kindness will never be forgotten. Peace be with you David. My deepest condolences to David´s family and to Joyce Ann.

Spud was a close friend for more than 3 decades. His wife Harriett & he were founding members of the Johns Hopkins Ciccarone Center for the Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease. Spud & I played a lot of golf together. He had an engaging and mischievous sense of humor. I will miss his wise counsel & his perspective on sports & life. R.I.P. Spud.
