David and I spent some time together over the past few years practicing breathing and meditation techniques. He was a deep and kind man who took the practices I taught him with an open mind and willing heart. I will miss our sessions. I am moved by the way he explored the science and the art of yoga at a time when he really needed it's effects. He was a wonderful student to me and I admire him forever.
