David was a 1973 graduate of South Gwinnett High School and had a career in sales. He loved family beach trips to Florida and attending NASCAR races all over the country. David enjoyed competing in the annual Stone Mountain Park Chili Cook-Off and was pleased to have won 1st Place in 1997. He had a skilled trade and craft for carpentry that became a lifelong hobby. David was a proud “Papa” and being with his grandchildren is where he truly found his happiness and joy.

A private farewell will be held to honor and celebrate David’s life.

I worked with David at a fuel company for many years and we were very close. He was a great friend and loved his family very much. Was really saddened to hear this news. I know you will be truly missed. R.I.P. David as I know you are rejoicing in your new body today.
Jim Clay says
You are sorely missed David, brother in Christ. Your love for the lord, especially these last few years makes a deep impression on my own walk. I knew of your previous life, but knew you more as a Master carpenter who selflessly shared his skills and time with me in my biggest time of need. God bless you David. Thank you Lord for David’s life.
Bill Stovall says
My friend David. I wish you all the peace now. I surely had some of the best times of my life with you. The many Daytona 500’s we went to, Charlotte 600’s, Bristol and the Stone Mountain chili cook offs we did. Laughing so long we got hoarse. You and I go way back and sure miss those good ole days together. I wish I could have seen you one last time. I know life is a blink of an eye and yours was a wink! Goodbye old friend.
