Barbara, Brian, Jill: I was sorry to read in the Windsor Star of your loss of Dave. I have many great memories babysitting your family when you lived in Windsor on Esdras. Treasure your memories as a family and I hope you are all well.

Story shared: First encounter with Dave

Tue, 21 Feb 2012 14:51:16 EST

Dave was the first University of Waterloo professor I spoke to when I was considering as a student transferring from McMaster into the PAS program at Waterloo in the late 80s. He invited me to come to campus for a visit. When I arrived, he spent virtually half a day showing me around campus and talking to me about the program. His enthusiasm and down to earth friendly demeanor were the deciding factor in what I think was a pivotal decision in my life. He was definitely one of the most liked professors for our program and never forgot a name. I saw Dave 2 weeks ago at the WWCAA dinner and he hadn't changed a bit. Always the jovial, likeable personality. Very sad to hear of his passing.

Dear Barb, I learned from Cobie about the sudden passing of David with shock and sadness for your loss. We only spent a little time with you and David but it was such an enjoyable evening. I am sorry we were not able to get to know David better. In reading several of the messages on this site, I know we missed someone very very special. Please accept our deepest condolences to you and your children.

Dave was one of the most influential teachers I have ever had. I had the good fortune of continuing to run into him locally over the last 20 years at accounting events and various races. He always had the warmest greeting and talking with him always made me feel special. So sorry for your loss, he will be missed.

I was proud for having David as a professor and mentor during my time in Canada. He was always helpful and everytime ready to share a smile for all of us MBET guys. Although, I will not be able attend any of the ceremonies in person, I will be there in my thoughts. I wish for all who knew him that they will remember him for the open-minded and even more open-hearted person he was.

Condolence From Katie 'Lefty' Konig

To the Carter Family: I knew Professor Carter for a mere five weeks, but he impacted my life. He was always so warm and welcoming, willing to help out and a wonderful professor. He made sure that each student in his class was welcomed and felt special - he even nicknamed me 'Lefty' - he loved to tell me about left-handed people (like me) who he thought were special. His class was one that I would never miss - I changed appointments so that I would be there, because, as I told my mother, Professor Carter's one rule for our class was that we should all be on time. I am deeply sorry for your loss. Your family is in my prayers. With sincere sadness, 'Lefty'

the world would be a better place. David was one of those rare people who could make you feel important and special simply through his greeting, which was always accompanied by a smile. His positive outlook and ability to balance caring and empathy with common sense is something to which we should all aspire. We were given a special gift in Dave.
