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

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,

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.”
