I remember him from junior high. Mr Glaser calling him "dippity do" and he calling Jack Happel "happel jacks".

I too have very fond memories of Dave. He was always great around me and I was over at his home after graduation and was impressed how greatious he was. Speaking of Mr Glasser in wood shop, does any one remember the metal shop teacher's name?Susan McIlrath (Minkus)
Was it Mr. Reigle?William (Bill) Cummings
I went to a catholic school through 10th grade. They closed for financial reasons
I showed up at Baldwin in my Junior year. My graduating class at Baldwin was four (4) time larger that the 9th thru 12th grade total enrollmen at St. Wendelin School. It was a challange, to say the least.
Dave was the first friend I made at Baldwin. I met him in Glee Club. He and I both played the piano and boxed.
He made me confortablle, and it helped me adjust to a new and very different enviorment.
I won't ever forget him and will always appreciate him.
