Many Libertarians wrote tributes to Bergland after his death. [[Nicholas J Sarwark]], the chair of the national Libertarian National Committee at the time of his death, recounted the following: | |||
<blockquote>In 2017, I had the chance to meet David Bergland in person and chat. We shared a laugh about a favorite quote attributed to him, running for office and attending a fundraiser. Someone told him, “I want you to know that in my heart, I’m a Libertarian.” He reportedly replied, “That’s great. Let me know when it gets down to your balls.”<br /><br />Let us take his combination of wisdom, wit, and yes, balls as an example as we work toward the vision of a world set free in our lifetime that he will not be here to enjoy. Godspeed David Bergland, may your memory be eternal.”</blockquote> | |||
