David John Ludlum

Dave was one of my best friends, we spent a lot of time together from '95-'01 in DC/VA, met at the IRS...truly a guy who would do anything for you, help with anything needed...I'll miss him, may you Rest in Peace buddy...praying that God will provide Missy, family and friends the strength needed to get through this difficult time.

In good spirits a gentle-giant recalled . . .
Before Dave met his beloved, we would sometimes get Deli sandwiches at his fav Deli, (they knew him and the sandwich he liked)
get lit (yup-blasted) and ride down/ up Mt V trail.

Although lit, good life memories I'll always remember,
Thanks Dave,

I don't really have the words to capture how amazing of a friend Dave was to me for all the years we worked at the IRS together. Dave was the best. He was one of the first people I met when I started as a youngster in SB/SE Research and he showed me the ropes. He told the greatest most entertaining stories, and he always had my back professionally when I needed help navigating the Research landscape or whatever. I never dreaded having to go to meetings in DC because it was an opportunity to see if Dave was there and chat. I send my condolences to Missy and the rest of Dave's family and friends and wish you all strength and comfort during these difficult times. Rest in Peace Dave, You were the best!

Always enjoyed working with Dave. He was always gracious and helpful. I'll miss him.

As an analyst starting out in RAAS, I found David to be a wealth of knowledge for all things Tax and Data related. He always had time to answer a question, share some code, or chat about whatever was on your mind. I considered him a friend in the office, and I am very sorry to hear about his passing. Rest in peace.

Dave was my first friend at the IRS - he was very kind and also funny. I am very saddened by his passing and wish Missy the strength to get through the loss. - Rahul

Dave will be missed, he was a a great intellect and ready to share his expertise...
