Our hearts are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Prof Bland. My husband & I just began an economics class with him at UMO last week. The very first assignment that Prof Bland gave us was to read and analyze a Harvard Business Review article entitled “How Will You Measure Your Life?” I am so thankful that he chose to share it with us. The article stressed the importance of evaluating what matters in life, not just in business. Prof. Bland's life had such an impact on so many of us students, and that is truly something of measure.  Our sincerest sympathies go to Prof Bland's family. We will continue to keep you in our thoughts, prayers & hearts. He was a wonderful person & will be missed; thank you for sharing him with so many of us.

We are so sorry to hear of Davids passing.   You will miss him but he's not looking back at this old place. 
Hugs and kisses to the Bland familu

Heaven did certainly gain a beautiful soul and it is surely our loss here, as David will be missed by all who knew him.  We love you David, you left us "ALL" way too early.

If I had a chance to have that last conversation with him, I would thank him for his friendship and his untiring devotion to doing his part to make the world a better place and to set a good example for students and coworkers. I'm going to miss you buddy.
