I love seeing these photos from 1972-75, the era when I got to know David. He was my sociology instructor (TA, I think) and I used to hang out after class to talk to him. I was an "older" student and struggling with school, work and raising kids, and he was so compassionate and funny, it always gave me a lift. Then years later I turned up in Huntsville and found him there and was delighted. I visited him and Marcy and the twins at Breckenridge ca. 1973 when the kids were just toddling. I'm so sad that he has left us.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your wonderful comment, Dean! I'm glad that another part of the story was that his daughter turned up in New Orleans when you were there!
