If past class president Bill Ogden had not done some probing to track down Dave so treasurer Bob Kenagy could inform him of class dues, it would not have been known by Alumni Records or us that Dave, living in Salzburg, Austria, had died Sept. 19, 2013, following a massive stroke.
It seems that obituaries, as we know them, are not published in Austrian newspapers. One of Dave’s sons, Peter, supplied details. Dave had grown fond of Austria when he was stationed there in the Army after graduating from Princeton. In 1956, he married Jutta Haberfellner, a 1949 graduate of the University of Graz in Austria.
Dave earlier had earned a law degree from the University of Illinois. He joined Mobil and later worked for Standard Oil. Still later, he was general counsel for Sperry Computer Systems International. Finally, he opened his own practice, Anderson & Associates, in Washington, D.C. Then he and Jutta relocated permanently to Salzburg.
Jutta died in 2001. Besides Peter, Dave is survived by his sons, Wolfgang and Christopher, daughter Claudia, and six grandchildren. Peter said his father always spoke highly of Princeton. We speak highly of Dave, and wished our paths had crossed more often.
