David Depledge Obituary

Depledge, David A. Went to heaven and joined his loving mother on March 13, 2014, age 49 years. Dear son of Doug (Cathy) Depledge and the late Anne (Al) Wess. Cherished brother of Linda (Steve) Braley, Dr. Tim (Val) Depledge, Sandra (Tim) Laurishke, Jennifer (Scott) Conerton, and Matthew Depledge. Much loved uncle of William (Kristina), Christina, Aubrey and Evan. Also survived by other family, friends and caregivers. David wasn't given much from the start. He never walked or talked or even rode a bike. Yet he found a way to be a happy, laughing and smiley guy, "A Sweet Fella". He was well liked by those who worked with him. There will be an open space in our hearts where David was but now is filled with our memories and a hope he is now in a place of love and peace. Deep heartfelt thanks go to the awesome, attentive, caring and professional clinical and administrative staff at the Southern Wisconsin Center for the Developmentally Disabled where David lived for 37 years. Memorial visitation at the Funeral Home on Friday, March 21, 2014, 4:30-6:30 PM. In lieu of flowers, memorials to United Cerebral Palsy of Southeast Wisconsin, 6102 W. Layton Ave. Milwaukee, WI 53220.

Linda,
Thinking of you and your family. It is never easy to lose someone, espeically someone so close. Just remember he is a better place and has beautiful sunny days to do all the things that were wished to do here!

Dear Linda and Family,
I remember your brother when I would come over to your house back in the good ol'days. I am sorry for your loss. I know he brought much joy to your family. My brother is also at Southern Center. We don't know what we would do with out them. David is now free to do all those things he could,t do here! Thinking of you Linda.
Always,
