Space Forum / Shuttle / April 2007David Beverly was one of the good guys
In answer to someone spewing venal accusations, "No, David Beverly WAS NOT a workplace bully!" He was one of the very best people I have ever met or had the privilege to work with. He was an excellent engineer, a kind and gentle person, and someone you feel blessed to have known. How we will miss him! <gwynhafar@yahoo.com> wrote in > In answer to someone spewing venal accusations, "No, David Beverly WAS > NOT a workplace bully!"

How we will miss him! Totally concur, here's what I said on MSNBC today after the presser, inter alia: Question regarding Beverly's heroism "Absolutely -- what we know about Dave, from people who knew him, they universally considered him to be an outstanding human being, and a good engineer -- a top flight engineer dedicated to his work, to his co-workers, decent. And that apparently is -- that comes back to what I mentioned earlier, that something was gnawing at Dave, that I have learned from people close to him, and that was the need to do more with less. "So that's not been mentioned at the press conference, I wish I were there because I'd ask it." >In answer to someone spewing venal accusations, "No, David Beverly WAS >NOT a workplace bully!"

How we will miss him! Good to know. All too often the 'someone' spews accusations in order to make himself the center of attention. D.  SignatureTouch-twice life. Eat. Drink.

How we will miss him! My condolences on your loss. In my web searches to learn more about David Beverly, I learned that last year, he was awarded NASA's Exceptional Achievement Medal: http://nasapeople.nasa.gov/awards/documents/2006NASAPeopleAwards.pdf Ted Molczan > He was one of the very best people I have > ever met or had the privilege to work with.

From what I've read about David Beverly, sounds like he was full of life and had many interests, including sailing. To have it end so suddenly and in such a violent way is a real tragedy... My condolences for your loss. SignatureCraig Fink Courtesy E-Mail Welcome @ WeBeGood@GMail.Com |
