To David family was forever. He was a fun loving husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle. He cherished his relationships with his family. He was often called upon to help, and in true David fashion he did. He was always there when another needed him.  David gave far more than he received and never expected anything in return.

David loved traveling. He and his wife Jennifer enjoyed taking day trips and looking for the best walking trails and learning something new. David had a great sense of humor and could often make you laugh with a witty remark.  David also enjoyed getting to know and entertain the little people in his life.
