David's legacy continues through his pride and joy, his son Felix, who will grow up hearing tales of his kindness and musical gifts. Bubby's sisters, Connie, Lexi, and Maggie will hold onto the memories of their brother's deep love for family, compassion and bratiness. David leaves behind his longtime partner Cora Collett, who shared the last decade together. Bubby also leaves behind many close aunts, uncles, and special cousins and friends. Pam (Mike), Patti (Byron), Brett (Angela), Don (Kim), Charlotte (Billy), Abbi, Kyle, April, Allison, and his closest friend, Ryan.

Unfortunately i wasnt able to attend today, but I will see he and I pretty close as kids and reunited last summer. Sheesh where do I start. He was a genuine person. If you were friends with him he would go out of his way to help you at whatever the cost. He was an all around get fella. Very talented especially on the guitar. Always knew how to make me smile and keep good conversation. My most fondest memory him is when we use to walk around Kettering and get into all kinds of shenanigans. There was this one time we snuck into an Alice Cooper concert at the pavilion and got kicked out after one song because they finally realized we snuck in. Anyways I will always remember and cherish the time we spent together. He will always be dear to me my condolences to his family Cora and Felix.
RIP David Dawson
