Dave, a lifetime jurist, died April 13, 2013, at his residence in Warren, Ohio.

A Philips Andover graduate, Dave majored in politics and belonged to Cannon. After earning a bachelor of laws degree from Harvard Law School in 1953, he served three years as a Judge Advocate General (JAG) officer in the 4th Naval District in Philadelphia.

Dave then returned to Warren to practice private law. He became an assistant prosecutor in 1960 and was admitted to practice before the Ohio Supreme Court.

In 1964 he was elected Trumbull (Ohio) County prosecuting attorney and in 1968 was elected common pleas judge. During his tenure as common pleas judge, the Ohio Supreme Court cited him eight times for outstanding judicial service. He returned to private practice in 1987, finally retiring in 1999.

Dave is remembered for his humor and wit and as a storyteller at various public events. He had an abiding interest in history and politics, which he integrated into his travels. He loved a variety of sports, both as a participant and as an observer.

Our sympathy goes to his wife, Mary Flo, whom he married in 1951; and his son, David, a third-generation lawyer. His son Mark died in an accident in 1980.
