David graduated from Texas A&M University with a master's degree, and served as an adult probation officer for Brazos County for the majority of his professional career. Following David's retirement, he enjoyed woodworking, traveling, tackling DIY projects, and playing with grandchildren.

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, or ALS is a devastating disease that David endured 4 years with an incredible faith and insurmountable courage. His positive outlook was such a testimony of his faith and trust in God's plan to all he encountered.

We are so thankful for the care, encouragement, love, and support provided by his hospice nurses and care providers for the past year and a half. Much appreciation is owed to the Houston Methodist ALS Clinic in Houston, TX, Dr. Jean Mays and Dr. Sybil Taquet, both from Bryan, TX. David donated his body to the Willed Body Program-Texas A&M School of Medicine.

His Celebration of Life will be held at Westminster Presbyterian Church, 3333 Oak Ridge Drive, Bryan on Saturday, May 18th, 2024 at 3:00 p.m. A meet and greet will follow. In lieu of flowers, donations to Westminster Presbyterian Church and Hospice Brazos Valley (502 W. 26th, Bryan, TX 77803) would be welcomed.
