David did not know a stranger. He was a friend to many people from all walks of life and helped others when he could. David let his heart lead him. He was quick to defend others. If David said, “I love you,” you knew it. He would hug friends or family, and friends became his family.

Per David’s request, he will be cremated. A memorial service will be held Saturday, July 2, at 11 am at Old State Route 32 Chapel (Former Presbyterian Church) in Sardinia, Ohio. Pastor Joe Puckett is officiating. Family and friends will gather after the service at the church for a time of food, fellowship, and remembrance. Rob Fender of Beam-Fender Funeral Home is serving the family.
