Graduated from Guilford High School, class of 1969. Married Christine “Chris” Kennedy in Rockford at St. Patrick Catholic Church on April 16, 1977. David worked as an accountant for Barber Colman, Siebe, Invensys, Smith’s, and then GE Aviation, retiring in 2016. He was raised Lutheran and believed in “Let Go.., Let God”.
David was loving, kind, gentle, and funny. An “Old School Gentleman” with a great sense of humor, even in hard times. He liked to watch movies, old TV shows, and listening to Frank Sinatra. He was an avid Green Bay Packer and NY Yankee fan. He enjoyed playing many games and sports. He was able to make even difficult tasks fun and easier.
Family was important to David. Some of his favorite memories were created up north at “the lake” on annual family vacations. He especially loved spending time with his granddaughter to whom he was “Boppa”. He will be truly missed.
