Dave personified everything that is good about subsim, and he will continue to do so for as long as we remember him. His journey was short, but his memory will live on for a very long time.

To an inspirational modder... RIP Dave. :cry:

Fair winds, clear skies and calm seas. May they always be yours.

Respect.

Ok, I have heard back from Francisco and he said a "plaque to hang with his other things would be nice and welcome." I will post more on this tonight when I get home, how to contribute, etc. My thoughts are to I'll set up a donation page where everyone who contributes will be listed and have a nice plaque made. Any donations in excess of the cost of the plaque will be donated to charity in Dave's name.

What kind of charity? How about some thoughts on that? Red Cross, or maybe some heart foundation, or USS Cavalla foundation, or ... ? I can also ask Francisco if he has a preferance. I think an appropriate 501c org of some type.

That's a great idea Neal. As far as the charity I would suggest a heart research foundation (or something similar) unless Francisco has another idea.

Truely tragic, I was deeply saddened to see that Dave had suffered a stroke, but this is simply beyond words. My condolences go to his family in this hard time. Although I barely knew Dave beyond the thread for ROW, its obvious he was a good person, who went out of his way improve this game/sim for everyone while making many friends along the way. May you rest in peace Dave...the Subsim community will miss you.

I've been checking this thread daily, hoping that no news really was good news. This is very sad. I know it's a cliche to say especially for someone so young, but it's true, when you see someone go who would have contributed so much more to the world, had they just been able to stay awhile longer.

Farewell Dave.

As far as a donation, I'd agree with the idea of a heart foundation of some sort as a good candidate. I'm pretty close to Dave's age and I have heart disease too (and know many others in the same situation), so my bias is pretty obvious. This kind of loss just really hits close to home for me.

The Humane Society he was a Dog Lover.

Thanks Neal. As far as a charity I will go with what is decided here. Dave I am sure is looking down, overwhelmed but not surprised by all of this, he loved this place, SUBSIM meant a lot to him.

Count me in.
First choice would be Francisco's call, second choice USS Cavalla Foundation or similar.
