Offer Condolence for the family of David Alexander Warke

Iris, I was so sad to hear about Dave and I send my deepest condolences to you and your family. As so many others, I was proud to know Dave as a friend and a colleague. I got to know you both at the same time when Dave came to work at Dome shortly after I did. As I was a single man in those days I was cultivating as many married friends I could get who were willing to occasionally invite me to stay for supper. I remember your new home in Calgary and you starting your family there. You were friends I introduced my fiance Karen to. Daves career and mine paralelled each others for quite a few years and we even worked occasionally at the same company after Dome. As our careers slowly separated, somehow we seemed to always bump into each other somewhere. Although I hadn’t bumped into Dave for the last few years, I would inquire about him through the aviation grapevine, so I at least knew what he was doing workwise and felt assured that we would one day cross paths again. Dave was not just another guy that you work with. He was a friend I worked with and a cherished friend at that. I will miss him.
