It reminds me of Thomas Gray and his Elegy and Epitaph. I think there
are many Dave's amongst us. His passing so suddenly reminds me of
gratitude that we each have more time together - until we don't,
always leaving too early. It's an honor to be part of such a group.
Thanks Dave, for this group.
THE EPITAPH
Here rests his head upon the lap of Earth
A youth to Fortune and to Fame unknown.
Fair Science frown'd not on his humble birth,
And Melancholy mark'd him for her own.
Large was his bounty, and his soul sincere,
Heav'n did a recompense as largely send:
He gave to Mis'ry all he had, a tear,
He gain'd from Heav'n ('twas all he wish'd) a friend.
No farther seek his merits to disclose,
Or draw his frailties from their dread abode,
(There they alike in trembling hope repose)
The bosom of his Father and his God.
