I just found out by chance of your loss; Alastair and I are sad and in shock for David's untimely passing. I will always remember your kind friendship during our stay in San Diego. All our love and heart felt sympathy for you and the boys (they must be wonderful men by now).

David, as communications was your specialty, I know that you can hear us. In most ways, you were always bigger than life: smart, kind, competent, fun, and always a good friend. Thank you for all that; we will miss you.

I worked with David at Inmarsat in Nyon, Switzerland from 2011 to 2013, and my wife Gail and I got to know David and Moira. We are both shocked to hear of his passing and want to pass our sincere condolences and prayers to Moira and the rest of David's family.
