Family Story

David is victim of a senseless hit-and-run, David's departure has left a void in the hearts of all who knew and loved him and has left a community in shock.

David was born in Newburyport, Massachusetts and grew up nearby in Arlington. He honorably served his country as a veteran of the United States Marine Corps where he spent most of his service at Marine Corps Base Kaneohe Bay, Hawaii.  Eventually moving with his family to Erie, PA, he was known as the fun Uncle Davy, always taking his children, nieces and nephews on road trips in his camper. Later in life he moved to the southwest and enjoyed the freedom of his moped, occasionally testing his luck at the local casinos, and the comradery of his community of veterans at Veteran’s Independent Living of Albuquerque.
