• Though I have never had the pleasure of working with David, reading this gives me the impression that he was truly one of a kind. He will be missed dearly. TimTheDragonRider (talk) 19:45, 26 April 2023 (UTC)

• Weeks later and I still can't believe this is real. I always was one of his (talk page stalker) and can't bring myself to unfollow. What a huge loss to the community, but especially his family and grandchild. Star Mississippi 00:33, 29 April 2023 (UTC)
• One of the very best people. I'll miss his good sense a lot. My condolences to his family. Blythwood (talk) 21:08, 29 April 2023 (UTC)
• David was one of the very best. A great loss for our community, but his work has left an indelible mark. Onceinawhile (talk) 18:32, 4 May 2023 (UTC)

  Just a note: his family is more likely to see condolences on his talk than on this talk of an internal newsletter. --
