Born in Norfolk on July 6, 1956, he was the first born child and only son of the late David L. Baillio, Sr. and Ruth H. (Tootie) Baillio. He lived most of his life in Newport News but moved to York County in 2000 where he lived for the remainder of his life. David is survived by his wife, Lisa F. Baillio; his daughter, Stacey B.

Hayden Smith Funeral Home will be in charge of David's cremation. A private service with family was held on Saturday, June 8, 2013. A gathering open to family and friends will be held on Sunday, June 9, 2013 at 3 p.m. at the home of Ruth H. Baillio, 128 Lorna Doone Drive in Yorktown.

I will always remember David's and my brother, John's wild and crazy friendship. He is like
a member of our family and a part of my childhood memories. There are not words to express my gratitude for the support he showed us in the passing of our parents. One last favor David... please hug and kiss my Mom and Dad and tell them we love them. Much, much love to you.

David and his family was a neighbor for many years and I have so many memories of him inside and outside my home. He was a perfectionist and I always enjoyed his company and a cup of coffee. He called me often and he was so dependible,thoughtful and respectful since my husband passed away. My heart is so heavy today knowing I want get another call from him but he will always be in my prayers and througts. May God bless your family and may your memories sustain them at this very difficult time. God Bless

My thoughts and prayers go out to the Baillio family upon the passing of David. David was one of my best friends and we had a lot of good times together. If I ever needed anything, David was the first one to offer help. He was like a brother to me. David's whole family treated me like a family member. As we grew older and I moved away, we lost contact but I thought about him often and asked his family how he was doing whenever I saw them. We reconnected about a year ago at my mother's funeral. Remembering what a talented carpenter David was I asked if he would be willing to do some trim work for me in my home. He agreed and came for a couple days. We caught up and reminisced about the good times we shared. I really enjoyed his visit and we stayed in contact. I am really glad to have had that opportunity, David will be greatly missed.

My thoughts and prayers are with the Baillio family. I will always remember David and my brother, John driving their fast cars around Denbigh and him hanging out at our house and joking around. But most of all I remember what a good friend he was to my brother and how he supported us when we lost our parents. Rest in peace David.
