My deepest condolences to David, Doug and Jeffrey. Dave guided, supervised and train me in experimental physics beginning on the first day he arrived in Berkeley as a post-doc under Prof TOWNES. We did the uncrating of the equipment brought over from MIT and amazingly for me, started firing the q-switched ruby laser after 4 days. The next two years under his tutelage were the best in my graduate career. I remember his patience and gentleness, his encyclopedic knowledge of and insight into physics and astronomy. I also remembered that he was very proud of his 3 boys.RIP dear friend. Respectfully, Al Cheung

Gail, That is a photo of the man I remember in our younger years when
we all shared a friendship and good times--Stolenwerk, Lind, Ranks, etc.
While you have been apart from Dave for many years, as I from Don,
we did live a life together while raising our children. Dave's passing
undoubtedly bring back memories of those days, and grief around
the person you once loved. Thinking of you..........Cathy Lind Parisie

My sincere condolences to David's family. May his soul rest in peace. As a UCO and UCSC Department of Astronomy/Astrophysics faculty colleague, I had the privilege of working briefly with David in the mid 1990s on the PhD thesis committee of one of his graduate students.

To David, Douglas, and Jeffrey:
We at the University of California Observatories were deeply saddened to hear of Dave's passing. We will miss him!
Please keep us informed as you plan Dave's Committal Service, as I'm sure his former colleagues from Lick Observatory will try to attend.
We would like to hold a memorial meeting at UC Santa Cruz later in the year, which includes scientific areas which Dave contributed to. Please let me know how to get in touch with you as we begin organizing this memorial.
Thank you!
Claire Max
Director, UC Observatories
