David LOVELAND Obituary

LOVELAND, David John Our beloved David John Loveland relocated to heaven with his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on August 14, 2017 after a courageous battle with cancer. He was preceded in death by his daughter, Kelly Loveland Gourley, who welcomed him with open arms. He is survived by his best friend and wife of 48 wonderful years, Carol Timmerman Loveland and his children, Robyn Loveland Jones, Daniel Joshua Loveland (Jennifer ), and Jamie Loveland Rogers (Stephen) and his 10 grandchildren whom he adored, Maxwell David, Brenan Daniel and Miles Robert Jones, Madeline Brooke and Parker James Gourley, Wyatt Randall and Clint Walker Loveland, and Elizabeth Kelly, Levi John and Lane David Rogers. David was born on March 1, 1947 to Nelson and Jane Loveland and has 5 siblings, Daniel Loveland (Cindy), Mayda Tress, Jeffrey Loveland (Gloria), Robert Loveland (Jan) and Randall Loveland (Marjie) and many nieces and nephews . David owned Gilmore Electric Co for 31 years and loved and valued his employees dearly. He was a man of integrity. He touched many lives with his huge heart and we are grateful for the lessons he taught us on giving. David will always be remembered for his deep love for God and his family and friends . He loved orphans and was dedicated to helping less fortunate people around the world. He was a board member of World Help, a humanitarian organization, and was passionate about every aspect of the ministry. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to World Help to benefit Kelly's House, a house for special needs children that was built in memory of his daughter. Please send to P.O. Box 501. Forest, VA 2455 and specify Kelly's House in the memo line. A Celebration Service will be held on Tuesday, August 22, 2017 at Christ Fellowship north campus at 2:00 P.M.

David was not only my best friend since we were 5 yrs. old, and met in a Mango tree in Riviera Beach, Fl., but he has been a blessed friend all these years since.
He will be greatly missed in my life, but I can rejoice that with Christ he is far better...no more pain or suffering. Now David is worshipping face to face with his Savior whom he loved.
With love to Carol & all the family,

Those we love don't go away,
they walk beside us every day.
Unseen, unheard,
but always near,
so loved, so missed,
so very dear. You are in my thoughts and prayers

David, while at HDA, walked alongside me as I re-entered American society as a missionary from the West Indies. He let me know in word and action that, in spite of what I was seeing, I could not only survive but thrive. I am eternally indebted to him.

Dear Carol and the rest of the Loveland clan,
Grieving with you in the loss of a wonderful man of God, but also rejoicing because we do not grieve as those who have no hope. In glory for eternity where one day we will be reunited with our Lord and Savior, we look with anticipation of our forever home.
Much love,
Tricia and Mark

I remember Dave when he was an 18 yr old Senior at HDA with auburn hair; always a warm gentle smile ,a twinkle in his eyes and a quiet good sense of humor and a certain caring heart with his whole life ahead of him.
Sounds like the boy grew and became the man with all those same qualities; and lived a Godly life as an example to all those he came in contact with thru his life. One who ran the race well ; and was welcomed into heaven as a good a faithful servant.

So very sorry for your family's loss but "relocation" to heaven is ultimate healing and brings with it joy in the midst of sorrow. I didnt know David very well when we were classmates at HDA but have surely learned from fb posts of his wonderful ministry! Prayer for the perfect peace of the Lord to sustain you all as his legacy lives on.

Carol, I have been thinking of you and your family for some time, and hope that David's spirit lives on in all of you. Prayer is a powerful tool and you have Kelly and David now to facilitate that directly from heaven. God love you at this time of sorrow.

Dear Carol,I was David's classmate at HDA ('66). Having lost my husband to cancer I know some of what you're going through. Just know that our Father is true to every promise He's given us. I have found Him to be faithful, strong, loving and everything else I need. May He comfort you and your family as only He can. You are in my prayers with love.(My daughter, Emily Pereira Meyer, lives in Lynchburg where her husband, David, teaches at Liberty. She does some writing for World Help.)
