I was Chairman of the Mathematics Department at Oakland University in 1977 when I met and hired Dave as Assistant Professor. It was obvious from the beginning that he was a great teacher. He was also a great colleague and fun guy to be with at social events, which my wife and I did a lot of with Dave and his wife Jane, especially to some of the fine restaurants in the area. Jane was an equally nice person. She took classes at the University and was a student in one of my classes. She excelled at everything. At one point in 1987, when my wife and I bought a new home in Orion Township, Dave and Jane bought the home we had put up for sale. I retired from the University the following year and our times together pretty much came to an end. Later when Dave was Dean, he was responsible for following through on the process that named me Professor Emeritus, for which I was always grateful. I was saddened when Jane passed away and now more so to get this news. He was a close friend and highly respected colleague. George Feeman

Dave and i were colleagues at oakland university. He was dean of arts and sciences and i was in the vice president's office.

He was my best friend. We once team taught a course on numbers in journalism

Graduated with Dave from RIHS in 1968. Bright, polite, articulate and a good sense of humor. Dave was one of the good guys. My condolences to his family and colleagues.

Dave was my closest friend in graduate school. We shared our major professor, Art Kirk, and wrote a paper together. Just last year, Dave and I talked on the phone after every Hawkeye football game. I miss those talks and I miss my good friend.

It was a pleasure to know you Buddy….you are truly missed Lisha from pine tree place ❤️
