David lived a few blocks away. He was the first person I knew who got the Beatles "Sgt. Pepper" album, I think around the time we graduated. He went off to college in Minnesota and we lost touch, but I always wondered how his life worked out.
David was immensely gifted; a boy of tremendous intellectual capacity. He played music, wrote well, spoke fluent Spanish almost without an accent. The last time I saw him was in October of 68. He was at the U of A after an unhappy year in a small, but prestigious, college in Minnesota (Carleton). I was off to Europe, possibly never to return (I have been back several times on visits) and we lost touch. I see that he passed away in Tucson. Did any of you out there remain in touch with him? I always thought he would become a Harvard professor, a columnist with the New York Times or a novelist, but life doesn't always follow a rational course. If any of you knew him in later years, I would be happy to hear from you. He was a real influence on me during my youth.
I remember David quite well. He was remarkably articulate and seemed mature beyond his years when I knew him at THS. He was a regular contributor of very sophisticated poetry to the Quarterly magazine. He is remembered!
