Not sure what to say?

I just heard of Dr. Atiyehs passing. My condolences to Sue, family & friends. My heart is broken. He was a great chiropractor and a wonderful Godly man who truly cared and loved others. He will be greatly missed. Peace and comfort

Dave Atiyeh was one of my first and best friend at Palmer College of Chiropractic in 1982. He made getting through the Iowa winters bearable with our Friday Night Pizza and Beer Nights. Although we didn't speak often when we did it was like we saw each other every day. I was blessed to have known you, Rest in Peace, my friend.

David Atiyeh was a Good Man. He was always "doing great", happy to see you, genuinely interested in your life, your care. My sympathies to all who knew him; David will be sincerely missed.

Rest in peace Dave.

The fall will never be the same without you

Dr. Atiyeh was a wonderful, funny, loving man. He always made me laugh on my visits to his office. He helped me with my back issues so much. To his family, I am so sorry for your loss. You will all be in my prayers.

Dear Susan and Family,I'm sorry for your loss of a wonderful man. I'm grateful for you both when you made sure my family member was okay. May God& family hold you tight in these difficult times. Sincerely Judy Giammarino

Rest in peace my longtime friend, you always made me laugh, and now the world is an emptier place without you.

David's Obituary

Dr. David Gregory Atiyeh of Grass Lake, age 63, went to be with the Lord on September 13, 2018 with his family by his side. David is survived by Susan, his loving wife of 38 years; children Dominic, Anthony, and Alecia, grandchild Ava and older brother to JR. David was born on May 9, 1955 to Frederick and Nicolena Atiyeh. He attended St. Valentine (Redford), Stevenson High School (Livonia), Schoolcraft Community College (Livonia), Central Michigan University (Mount Pleasant), Palmer College of Chiropractic (Davenport, Iowa). He practiced from Ludington, MI to Jacksonville, FL; and eventually settled in Plymouth, MI where he enjoyed being part of the community and providing care. David enjoyed hunting, fishing, and furthering his education. He always wanted to learn more so that he could provide more to his patients. Just one example of him always putting others before himself. His love for God would illuminate from his presence. He regularly prayed with his patients, family, friends, and himself for guidance in fulfilling his purpose from God. Come celebrate Davids life and love for God with us on Saturday September 22, 2018 at 11 A.M. at Northville Christian Assembly of God, with Pastor Steve Samonek officiating. Please share your memories of David in lieu of this celebration. With tearful eyes we watched you, and saw you pass away although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating hard working hands laid to rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best. Memorial contributions may be made to Blums Landing,7460 Ocqueoc, Millerburg, MI 49759.
