David's presence on the Newar Campus will be felt for years to come. His commitment to supporting students as well as faculty members created an environment that is being emulated across Ohio. His support of the Ohio eTutoring Collaborative paved the way for thousands of students to receive academic support. Personally, David touched many of us--encouraging us to be our best. He did this by serving as an example. You are missed, David.
