David Sisk Obituary
To know David was to love him. He was kind, courageous, and his infectious laugh as well as sense of humor was a joy to all. David retired from the Gaston County Sheriff's Office in 2015 as the Assistant Chief Deputy. During his career, he helped changed lives for the better as well as worked toward making Gaston County and the world a better place. David helped many people build their careers in law enforcement, which is a tribute to his leadership. Throughout his illness, his greatest desire is that somehow his journey would lead others to Christ and they in turn would lead others as well. David was a member of Catawba Heights Baptist Church.
Survivors include his loving and devoted wife of 39 years, Ramona Sisk; much beloved son, David Wayne Sisk, Jr; grandsons, Grayson Wayne Sisk and Jacob Dylan Sisk; mother, Shirley Sisk; sister, Rita Sisk; brothers, Richard Sisk and William Sisk, Jr.; father in law and mother-in-law, Harold and Joyce Jackson; brothers-in-law, Wesley Jackson and wife Paula, Gary Jackson and wife Donna; sister-in-law Angela Sisk. David also had many nieces and nephews that he loved as if they were his own children. He was preceded in death by his father William J. Sisk, Sr.
A Celebration of Life Service will be held at 1:00pm, Friday at Catawba Heights Baptist Church with Pastor Raymond Johns officiating. Interment will follow in Hillcrest Gardens. Honors will be rendered by the Gaston County Sheriff's Office.
The family will receive friends prior to the service from 11 a.m. to 12:45 p.m. at the church.
Pallbearers and honorary pallbearers will be the Gaston County Sheriff's Office.
Memorials may be made to Catawba Heights Baptist Church, 311 Belmont Mt. Holly Rd., Belmont, NC 28012 or Gaston Hospice, PO Box 3984, Gastonia, NC 28054 or donor's choice.

I had the pleasure of knowing David and his family. I would like to wish my deepest sympathy and love and prayers to Ramona,David Wayne the grandkids; and to all the family. I have known David for a long time and he was one of the most Nicest, Caring and Humble human being that I know. His kindness To others and for all the people he helped and inspired, will never be forgotten. I know he made a real impact at the sheriffs office and Im sure he will be greatly missed there.

Mrs. Ramona
You don't know me but a few months ago you met my mother someplace and the two of you began to talk. You asked her to pray for your husband,even though you didn't know each other. She asked for prayer from our church faithfully, until she saw your sweet David had gone home to Jesus. We are praising God that he is now well and happy and asking His perfect peace and comfort for you and your family.
Sincerely,
Pam Wallace and Joyce Poteet
Franklin, NC

David was my neighbor when I was very young in Belmont and remember him to this day- a lasting impression on my life. I would see him occasionally and he never failed to remember me either. Peace be with his family, especially his mother Shirley during this time. RIP David
