1 God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. 2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, 3though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging. 4 There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy place where the Most High dwells. 5 God is within her, she will not fall; God will help her at break of day. 6 Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall; he lifts his voice, the earth melts. 7 The LORD Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. 8 Come and see what the LORD has done, the desolations he has brought on the earth. 9He makes wars cease to the ends of the earth. He breaks the bow and shatters the spear; he burns the shields with fire. 10 He says, “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” Psalm 46:1-10 RIP my friend.

I have been extremely shocked and saddened by the tragic and untimely death of Dr. David Pechman. Dr. Pechman has been of great professional assistance to my clients serving as an Agreed Medical Examiner on numerous Workers Compensation cases. I have met Dr. Pechman on a personal basis on many depositions and have always found him to be affable and professional with myself and the opposing attorneys. He will be sorely missed by the Workers Compensation community. My heart goes out to his family and his professional staff for their great loss. Earl M. Hyman, Esq.

I have had the privilege of working with Dr Pechman for the past 18 years; it is hard to believe that he is no longer with us. He was like a brother to me. I will miss his smile, his kind and giving heart, daily conversations with him and more than anything - his friendship and trust. I have memories of him that I will hold close to my heart forever. My heartfelt condolences to Susan, Ali and Brooke. My heart aches for your loss and I am wishing you all strength, peace and precious memories during this time of sadness.

I worked for Dr Pechman for several years and he was the most kind man, wonderful father, and a great boss!!! The girls were little and adorable, when they used to come to the office with Susan. Sadly for several of us, he left and went to a different practice... But I am very happy that I knew him and I am so sorry for the family that you have to go through this and that his life was cut short when he was doing wonderfully. My sincerest regrets to the family!

I have known Dr. David Pechman since he was 8 years old. I saw him grow up from the cutest little boy into the most handsome man. I was invited to his Bar Mitzvah when he was 13 years old. I was invited to his wedding when he married his beautiful wife Susan. and celebrated the births of his 2 daughters Ali and Brooke. I was included in all the celebrations. When he became a Doctor, he told me in his own words " Don't call me Dr., call me David as you always did." And he smiled. He was the most successful Doctor, and I can't believe he is gone, he was so young and had so much to do. I will never forget him and his smile. My heartfelt condolences to his wife Susan, his 2 daughters Ali and Brooke and his sister Diane, and all his family.

I've been Dave's friend since July,1992, when we met during orthopedic residency in NY. He had the uncommon combination of great academic intelligence and street smart common sense. Because of that, along with his high level of ethics, and his sense of fairness, his advice on matters dealing with medicine and life were sought out by many, including me. These qualities were also the reason why attorneys with opposite agendas would agree to have him as the Agreed Medical Evaluator (AME) -- none could deny his knowledge, expertise, rationality and reasonableness. He was always available to help junior residents and other doctors. He eagerly shared mundane chores, when as a chief resident he could have delegated them to others. He always helped the "little guy." He detested bullies of any kind. He was funny, loved life and especially relished sharing good times at his home with family and friends. I will miss my dear friend's kindness, counsel and wisdom for the rest of my life. I extend my heartfelt condolences to Sue, Ally, and Brooke, and to all of David's extended family and friends.

I was one of David's tennis coaches. I had the pleasure of teaching him and knowing him over the years at Mountaingate Country Club. In 2007 I ruptured a disc so bad I almost had to switch careers. Thanks to the care and attention that David gave me during that time, I am now able to do my job and play at a competitive level. I would not be doing what I am doing today without him. He was a kind caring generous man that I will miss dearly. Rest in peace tournament date rest in peace to one of Mountaingate's tournament champions. To one of Mountaingate's tournament champions

Sending heart felt condolence to the family for strength, peace and comfort. I have been a patient of Dr. Pechman's for sixteen years. Over the years, we became friends. He was a humanitarian at heart. He was always trying to help others and could make them feel special. His smile and his encouraging words will always remain with me. Friends for Eternity!

My heartfelt condolences to David's family. I knew Dr. Pechman only in the professional setting, but in spending time with him at his office I knew I was in the presence of a good man with an exceptional mind. He was honest, forthright, and a pleasure to work with. He had unquestionable integrity and you could tell his office staff cared deeply for him. He will be missed.

I had the honor of working with Dr. Pechman for almost 10 years. I am so deeply saddened it's hard to believe we won't see him walk through the door and greet us good morning. He had incredible stories and silly voices to go with them. We will miss him terrible. My heart goes out to Susan, Ali, and Brooke ?.

I had the privilege of working for Dr. Pechman for almost two decades. Words can not express how fortunate I was to have had this time to be in his presence. Dr. Pechman was a brilliant, hardworking & kind hearted person. It was amazing to watch his AME practice grow throughout the years with his hard work and dedication. Dr. Pechman told the best stories of his life's experiences and would always make us laugh. It was such a pleasure to work for him and I will miss seeing him everyday. He had a smile that would brighten any room. He loved his wife Susan and his daughters Ali and Brooke so much. His life was cut too short. Dr. Pechman still had so much to do. I looked up to him as a father figure and I will miss him terribly as I know you all will. I will never forget him.
