Although our paths never crossed, I realize that Dave Gheesling's passing is a
great loss to the meteorite collecting family around the world. My condolences
go out to his family and close friends.Dave Smith

>> Folks,
>> It’s with a heavy heart that I write to the meteorite community this
evening.
>> Dave Gheesling passed away yesterday (11/11), and we’re all trying to
process the sudden loss. He was my best friend. I don’t have the words to
express how much he meant to me, how much he influenced my life, and how
blessed I was to have known the man.
>> Dave’s love of family & friends, his positivity, his generosity and his
enthusiasm for life are the example he has left for us all. Dave has been an
important part of our community, and his contributions will live on as his
legacy for many decades to come.
>> I apologize for the abruptness of an email communication, but we were
only able to contact a few people this evening, given the hour. Please, if you
need anything, contact me directly so that we can give Dave’s family the time
they need to prepare for the service. I will post more details as they are
available.
>> Yours,
>> Sean Murray

later - and whether we like it or not - each of us will eventually assume room
temperature. Seemingly against all odds, we are born, we experience a few
decades on the big ball (if we're lucky), then we die. Our atoms are once again
stirred back into the terrestrial soup, and that's about all she wrote.”
