This is devastating.
A giant of a man, kind like no other, full of inspiration, advice and positive spirit, great father, and a friend whom you could rely on, for anything, always.
I can't put in words the emptyness I feel on knowing that Dave is no longer with us.
Speaking for my entire family, you will never be forgotten brother.
All our love and thoughts are with the Gheesling and Sutton families.
Svend & Claire

My heart is broken. Dave was a man of integrity and for whom I havegreat respect.He has supported me in many ways. I've shared a beer and I've sharedsome tears with him. He stands as an icon in the meteorite communityand a great family man.
Both Kat and I send our love and prayers to the Gheesling family,especially Maddie and Kasia.
Dave was a truly genuine person and I am so grateful to have been hisfriend and a part of his life. Rest in Peace my friend

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 Murray678-367-7095 (cell)--------------------------------------“Our respective fates here on planet Earth are all inevitable. Sooner or 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.”-- Dave Gheesling, August 2009______________________________________________
