mdlbearJust learned from everywhere on my friends list that ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
tnatj -- Dave Alway -- joined the immortals this morning. His brother peteralway posted this announcement. ohiblather has some great pictures here. He was 56 -- much too young.
I first met Dave two years ago when I was Interfilk guest at GAFilk. He was a joyful, welcoming presence in the lobby, with his tableful of buttons. This year I bought one of his new Pengu the Filk Safety Penguin buttons and listened to the silly song his stuffed Pengu sings. I also had the opportunity to chat with him at some some length, and we wound up in the same small circles more often than not. It saddens me greatly that I'll never have that opportunity again.
Fare well, Dave. If filkers go someplace appropriate when they die, say hello to Cindy for me.
