David Mirk Obituary

I met Dave a few years ago at High Plains Raceway, as we both had a passion for racing. Dave was one of the few friends I'd made at the track since moving to Colorado from the East Coast, and was always there with a joke or to offer help in any way he could. While we drove in different classes of cars and never directly competed against each other, Dave's ever-present smile and never-ceasing support was something I looked forward to every race weekend, and will now cherish forever. God speed Dave...

On behalf of KNS and our entire team, we would like to express our condolences to David's wife, son and family on his passing. We were blessed to have had the opportunity to work with him in his capacity with Extreme, and know that he had a passion for not only his work, but especially for his beloved family.

Our prayers are lifted up for your as you go move through this great loss.

I had the opportunity to work with David at HP. He was a brilliant guy. He could make a complex problem simple and easily solved. A small group of us would get coffee together every morning and get out for lunch now and then. Those were great time. God bless you Dave and your family.

A great light has left us - I will always remember Dave for his optimism & fabulous smile. He made working for HP wonderful. Peace & blessings to his family.

I will miss David Mirk. David made work easy, fun, and full of professionalism. I enjoyed our times golfing and talking. God bless the Mirk family during this difficult time.

I worked near and with Dave for several years at HP. Our best times were working under Jim Wensuc. Dave had a smooth, often calming, down-to-earth nature. He was normally reserved in his tone, but could roar like a lion when needed. He had a dry yet surprisingly funny sense of humor. He was always deliberate and methodical in his conversations. Not usually a man of many words, but he made every word count. I will always reflect on the good memories of our working together. He was a good team-mate and friend, and I am a better person for having known him. My prayers go out to all his family.

A more loyal and humble friend never existed Dave. Our loss is heavens gain. Sincere condolences to all your family and friends who are legion... RIP amigo...

David is a kind soul. He was always an upbeat and humble guy. I'm glad I had a chance to work with him. My prayers go out to his family that God's grace is surrounding.

Dave, you will always occupy a special place in my heart. You were an amazing friend and neighbor and you will be dearly missed.

Dave, you will always occupy a special place in my heart. You were an amazing friend and neighbor. Once again I lost the bet on the Olympics with Norway kicking Canada's butt, I only wish I had gotten the chance to pay up and enjoy another lasagna dinner with you. You will be missed my friend.

I am so saddened to hear of his passing. I worked with him at HP and he was such a great guy. We went mountain biking together. Sending lots of love and hugs to family and friends. He will be missed!

David, Working together as a duo at Hewlett-Packard was the lucky chance for me to know your work ethic, extreme talent, drive and love for your family. Too soon gone. Blessings to Max.

Dave: You will be greatly missed by the entire Velociti team. Heaven has gained an amazing soul but you will be greatly missed by those of us who were fortunate enough to know you on earth.

David, you were an inspiration to me as well as the entire team. Your smile and enthusiasm was contagious. Was a blessing to have known you and been influenced by your passion to be the best. You will be greatly missed.
