David was a kind creative guy who wanted everyone to share in his fun. He was admired and cherished by many and leaves a space on this earth that will be hard to fill. I can only hope that we will see him again. All my sympathy to his family and all who love him!
I am grateful to have known David over the years, and will miss the compassion, humor, and wit he added to the world. Sending care and peace to all who loved him.
David was a good friend of mine starting in our days at West High School. We shared a common interest in anti war activities, in social activism, and he and I were in a small group of like minded people who were friends as well. I kept in touch with him on and off over the years, and always enjoyed talking with him. He will be truly missed.
David was talented in the arts of art, music and acting and was the most wonderful and dearest friend in my life with whom I corresponded for forty years after meeting him June 30, 1984. My deepest sympathy to his family and friends. May he rest in Peace. Elaine R. Pennekamp from Chicago, IL
David will be missed for his kind heart, ever alert sense of humor, and energetic spirit. One of my most salient memories: I had just moved into a new old house when a car pulled into my driveway at night and just sat there. Thinking it may be a friend uncertain if this was the place, I went out and stood in the headlights but many feet from the car, expecting it would pull up and friends will emerge – but it just stayed there and all of a sudden I felt vulnerable. It then left. David advised how to to present myself in that situation, and he demonstrated: he placed his hand under his jacket like his hand was holding a gun, ready to draw. On David the Italian that would look intimidating, but we all laughed at that scenario being carried out by a white haired lady in bathrobe and slippers.
