David Moffett Obituary
David had a kind heart and giving soul. He was always willing to put the needs of others before his own. He loved riding his motorcycle, being outdoors, traveling, cooking, and spending time with his family. David recently traveled on his motorcycle across the country to visit his siblings. David was a loyal Miami Dolphins fan and was always up for a conversation about football. He had a gift for conversation and could talk to anyone about anything for hours. His ability to lift a person's spirit would draw others to him. When it came to being a handyman there was nothing that "Grandpa David" could not do. He was a dedicated and honest worker. At the time of his passing, David was employed at Villa Sierra Apartments for 14 years.
David will be greatly missed by all who knew him. His loving ways and gentle spirit will never be forgotten. With a heavy heart we say goodbye, but we shall meet again. "See you later, alligator!"
Visitation will begin at 1 PM Friday, June 3, 2016 at Baca's Funeral Chapel, 300 E. Boutz Road where the Memorial Service will follow at 1:30 PM with Pastor Jesse Frausto (friend and neighbor) officiating. Cremation will follow and Inurnment of Cremains will be held at a later date.

I am so saddened to hear of David's passing. Although I had the opportunity to meet David only once during a CPR/1st Aid course I facilitated, he was so very friendly and a kind hearted soul. I could tell immediately that he was indeed a great person. My condolences to the family and may GOD Bless you all during this most difficult time. The world will miss David immensely...

Bea and family, please accept our heartfelt condolences for your loss. David was a good guy and a great neighbor. He didn't mind lending your a tool or giving you a hand when you needed help. We will miss seeing the garage door open and knowing he is around.

David, I am ever so sorry that the LORD took you so soon, away from your family and friends that love you so much. May they all be comforted knowing that you are not really gone but just resting until they see you again. In the meantime, sleep with the angels my friend.

He was great person. We are tenants in Villa Sierra apartments, and David would always have a joke or two when we meet. He was a passionate motorcycle guy...

When I think of David, my first thoughts of him remember a teenager with a kind soul and big heart. The family and friends he leaves behind are truly blessed for having him in their lives. May you rest in peace David.

David, there are no words to express what you mean to me and my family. I'm going to miss our talks about Miami Dolphins football and Cubs baseball, your laugh, the way you loved my kids and my mom, the many conversations we had around the dinner table, and countless other moments. I will never understand why you were called home so soon. My life will never be the same without you here. We already miss you so much. We love you, "Grandpa David".
