JAVS Spring 2023

Hilary Dalton (Tim), Dubuque, IA; and Aaron Dalton (Abigail), Provo, UT. There are 15 grandchildren and one surviving brother, Stephen E. Dalton, Salt Lake City, Utah. David considered the three most fortunate things that happened in his life to be his volunteer church service as a young man in Germany, marrying Donna, and meeting William Primrose.

JAVS is currently collecting memories, thoughts, photos, videos, and scheduling interviews with anyone who would like to share their own David Dalton impactful moments. These combined memoirs from the community will be stitched together to create a centerpiece memorial piece for the Fall 2023 JAVS as a humble token of our enduring respect and remembrance to the Dalton family. If you would like to contribute, please reach out to editor@americanviolasociety.org.

Recognition is gratefully given to physicians and their assistants at Revere Health.

The entire American Viola Society Editorial team celebrates the life of David Dalton and the amazing impact he has had on every single one of us. We are so grateful to his family for allowing us to share his obituary to our membership through the very Journal that David so fantastically built up.
