Xavier fans loss a good one

[muskieman]

Dave Ralston was a 1958 graduate of Xavier High School and received his MA in classical languages from Loyola University Chicago in 1968. While an alum of Loyola he was Xavier through and through. He retired in 2004 from Xavier University where he worked 15 years in Admissions and was then the Director of Enrollment Research for another 15 years.

Dave was a dedicated Xavier University Basketball fan and had his own reserved seat at the Cintas Center while employed at Xavier. Dave was a road warrior going to many away games with the like of Kokomo Ed and the muskieman. As I said in a post back in 2009 when asked about a moment in Xavier history: "Dave Ralston is just somebody you want to have a chance to party with and travel with to X games". Many knew him from his time at X. He was a contributor here on MM for many years and was a moment of sanity in so many inflammatory threads. He like all X fans will be missed.
