David WOESTE Jr.

WOESTE David R. Woeste Jr., 31, of Cincinnati, Ohio, died on Friday, May 11, 2007, in a tragic plane crash. David graduated from Clermont Northeastern High School in 1994. He was a 1997 graduate of Miami University with degrees in chemistry and finance. There he met his future wife, Beth and they married in 1998. In 1999 he founded an online retail/wholesale site with his father. David tried to serve the Lord in each aspect of his life. He pursued each endeavor with simple prayer, passion, compassion, integrity and hard work. He was a member of the Flying Neutrons, a volunteer speaker for the Page Center for Entrepreneurship at Miami University, a youth soccer coach, an avid soccer player, and a member of Crossroads Community Church. David's greatest passion was sharing his faith and life with his children, friends, and family. He most enjoyed gardening, camping, and hiking with his children and wife. He found great pleasure working with his devoted family, loyal employees, and business contacts in his company. And he was always glad to spend time with family and friends on the soccer field, in a plane, or sharing a meal. He is survived by his wife Beth (Sweeting) Woeste and four children, his cherished parents David R. and Marcia (Miller) Woeste, his brothers Michael (Suzanna) Woeste and Jeremy (Skaseniio) Woeste, and sister Jennifer Woeste, all of Cincinnati. He will also be missed by Charles and Andrea Sweeting of Urbana, Owen and Brecke (Sweeting) Pohl of Columbus. The family wishes give our most heartfelt thanks to the entire community for their amazing outpouring of love and support. We extend our deepest sympathies to the Hitchens family and the Harpsoe family. A memorial service for David will be held at the chapel of Crossroads Community Church, 3500 Madison Rd. Cincinnati, Ohio 45209, on Sunday, May 20, 2007, at 2:30 P.M. Friends and family are welcome to come and share in this celebration of his life.
