Gerry, So sorry for your loss. I worked with David as a lab technician at U. L. in 1961. I'll never forget our time together at 207 E. Ohio. I lost my wife Bonnie in 2015 after almost 54 years of marriage so I have an idea of what you are going through. I am going to be passing through Chicago in September and I was telling my daughter in law about working at U. L. and thought about David.
May he Rest In Peace,
Don Woeltje
