A memorial of Dr. David Wurfel’s life and work as an academic was held last 3 December 2012 at the Third World Studies Center Conference Area. Testimonials were given by Dr. Francisco Nemenzo, Mr. Joel Rocamora, Professor Felipe Miranda, Dr. Jose Abueva, and Dr. Eduardo C. Tadem–some of his friends and colleagues who had worked with him during the long years of his career as a revered academic.
