David passed away Friday night, October 11, 2019 after suffering a massive heart attack. He was 50 years old. He had been employed through Walmart for nearly a decade, and was a customer service manager at the Spring Avenue location.

He loved his collection of guns and knives, and would go to the range to shoot anytime he could. His grandkids were his entire world. He spent every free minute taking them fishing and to the refuge.

His calm quiet nature left a lasting impact on anyone he knew. He was so loved, and will be missed tremendously.
