Dear Genevieve ,
Rosemary and I were very saddened to learn today about David's passing .
David was held in high esteem by his colleagues in Perinatal and Pediatric Pathology all over the world, for his many significant contributions to this field of Medicine. He will be sadly missed.
Personally , we always remember the kindness and hospitality you showed us in 1993;ironically currently our television channels are filled with a serial documentary of the New Zealand coastline and general discussions about life in New Zealand in general.We are so grateful to have been hosted by Davids and Genevieve all those years ago , because they gave us such a warm and loving look into their homeland. Knowing David was a privilege.Our deepest condolences go out even if very belatedly to Genevieve and his extended family.
Derek and Rosemary de Sa.
Formerly of BC Children's Hospital, Vancouver. Canada
