“I am so sorry to hear about Dave’s passing. I worked with him over 20 years on the LAMPS program with Honeywell. He was the nicest man you ever wanted to meet. May he rest in peace. My Condolences to his wife and family. “
“Dave was a very nice gentleman and it was my privilege to have worked with him for many years on the LAMPS program with Honeywell. My sincere condolences to his wife and family. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.”
“ANN AND FAMILY, MAY THE LOVE OF GOD SURROUND YOU DURING THIS TIME OF SORROW. YOU ARE IN MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS. SUSAN ALT XOXO”
“Ann, I am so sorry for you loss. Please know that you and your son are in my thoughts and prayers.”
“Dave had a great sense of humor, was full of life, and always had great stories to tell. Everyone enjoyed working with Dave because he was easy going and his knowledge was endless. He is going to be greatly missed by everyone. I know I miss him already. My condolences to his family.”
“I am incredibly heartbroken about Dave’s passing. He was my boss on the LAMPS program, and no one ever was or will ever be a better boss than Dave. I will miss him very much…his kindness, his stories, his knowledge and friendship. He was a man of honor and integrity. Rest in peace Dave. My deepest condolences to his family.”
“Dave was a great guy and an outstanding technician. I was sorry to hear of his passing.”
“I would like to extend my deepest condolences to the family during this difficult time. I worked with Dave for many years and will sincerely miss him!”
“Ann, I am so sorry for your loss. With deepest sympathy. “
“I worked with/for Dave for about 10 years. He was always on my short list of people to call when I had a particularly tough technical problem on a ship. If Dave couldn’t figure it out, nobody could. Dave also had a special command of the English language that his friends and co-workers jokingly referred to as “Fryman-ese.” To this day, I fondly think of Dave whenever I look at “drawlings,” or go to a “Wal-Mark.” He will be missed.”
“Ann, I am so sorry. you are in my thoughts and prayers”
“My first job out of college was with Honeywell on the LAMPS contract. Dave was my manager during the engineering rotation of my work there. I always admired, and continue to do so, the manner in which he conducted himself. I learned much about navy support, professionalism, and integrity while under Dave’s management. I am forever grateful for having the opportunity to share time with a man of such great character and humility. Dave would be the last one to tell you how important he was to the work, but everyone else knew. Thanks, Dave.”
“To the Family; may the peace of christ be with you during this most difficult time. Dave was difference maker, and he certainly will be missed by all who have had the fortunate opportunity to meet, or work with him…”
“Ann and Family, my thoughts and prayers are with you during this time of sorrow. “
“Ann and Family, my deepest sympathy and condolences to you. I have known Dave for over 30 years and seen his cheerful face almost every morning. His passing is a deep loss to all of us at Honeywell. His skills and knowledge will be sorely missed. His smile and friendship will always be remembered.”
“My sincerest condolences. Dave was a great coworker, terrific supervisor, and a good friend. I will miss his stories, humor, and mentoring. “
“Ann, my deepest condolences to you and your family. My thoughts and prayers are with you.”
“Ann, You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers with the loss of your husband. I am so sorry. “
“”Ann And Eric I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you.””
“Ann and Eric, Our deepest sympathies..Peace be with you.. With Love, Deb, Gary, Kiera, Asa and Norah.”
“I am very saddened by the passing of Dave. Although I’ve been away from SMD for quite some time now (20 yrs or so), I often think about the good people I met while there ~ with Dave at the top of the list! He was a great supervisor and technical resource. But, much more importantly, Dave was a great human being and friend. I can’t say enough about his character, generosity, and sincerity. He made a young, “green” engineer feel important; and for that I am forever grateful. My thoughts and prayers are with the Fryman family.”
“Ann and family, Dave was my first supervisor when I moved here in 1995. His mentorship, leadership and most importantly friendship have benefited me well throughout the past 18 years. One of my fondest experiences was being part of the “Q4 Commandos” and “Uncle Dave” was our fearless leader! They broke the mold when they made Dave. He will be sorely missed but more importantly respectfully remembered by all that knew him. Brenda and I will keep you in our thoughts and prayers.”
“Ann and family, Your loss is profound. Please take comfort in knowing there are so many who are thinking of you now, and who are sharing this loss with you. Dave’s support of the LAMPS project, and LAMPS people is well described in these condolences. Dave was always at his best solving our problems, some technical, some not. I’ll remember him for his calm, matter of fact approach to solving even the toughest problems. Thank you for sharing Dave with us. He is already greatly missed.”
“Ann, I am sorry for your loss. Time will pass but memories will be forever present of Dave who was so vesy special to you. With deepest sympathy Gill”
“David, rest in peace my friend. You made working fun and enjoyable. You taught me so much. God has a great soldier at his side.”
“An extroardinary gentleman, whose direction and leadership guided me through challenging situations. May you rest in peace Dave Fryman.”
“Ann.you are in my thoughts and prayers.”
“Ann & Eric: Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Dave will be forever in our memories and for every future engineering effort on our program, there will surely be a little bit of Dave designed in. He was a great mentor, a great leader, and a great person. He will be missed. “
