I've been sitting here reading through the many nice tributes to David, remembering him, and crying...

I mostly knew David through his postings on GFY as AfterShockMedia. He was one of my favorite posters, because he was very knowledgeable about the industry (and generously shared his knowledge), he had a wonderful sense of humor, and he was passionate about several of the same issues which I am passionate about.

In fact, we met only once, when I visited him while he was at Stanford Hospital this past November. Although we had never met before in person, we shared a meal, drank some beer, and talked for hours like a couple of old friends.

I remember how we talked about GFY as a community. It is at times such as this sad occasion when I am truly reminded of that.

David talked openly and honestly about his medical issues, although he never felt sorry for himself or sought sympathy.

I must tell you too that he loved his wife with all of his heart. I want to extend my sincerest condolences to Julia, and to the rest of David's family.

Finally, I want to share one of David's posts from about 4 months ago, in which he wrote:



In some Zen teachings there is an expression that when one dies, they simply drop their body, while their soul lives on.

To me, David has simply dropped his body, and his soul is now free.

Rest In Peace My Friend...
