David Floyd Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on May 22, 2025.
David Michael Floyd, 77, passed away peacefully on May 1, 2025, in Baltimore, Maryland, the city where he was born on August 15, 1947. His life was a testament to quiet strength and enduring kindness.

David was known for his gentle spirit and unwavering positivity. Those who knew him remember a man who never spoke ill of others and carried happiness with him wherever he went. His presence brought comfort and calm, and his legacy is one of compassion and grace.

He is lovingly remembered by his daughter, Amy Steiner Pursell; his son, David Steiner Jr.; his sister, Nancy Virgin; his nieces Amanda Floyd Cline, Sandy Floyd-LeMaster, Laura Pimentel, and Rebecca Lamky; his nephew Matthew Virgin; his grandchildren William Brandon Pursell, Nickolas Pursell; and his great-grandchildren Pandora Pursell, William _Titus Pursell and Valentine Pursell.

David was preceded in death by his brother, Thomas Floyd.

His family mourns the loss of a beloved father, brother, uncle, grandfather, and great-grandfather. The bond shared with him remains unbroken by time or distance. As expressed by one who loved him deeply: "He was my dad and we were very close. I loved him with all my heart and I'll eternally miss him. We will reunite in the kingdom of heaven."

May David's memory bring peace to those who cherished him and may his gentle soul rest in eternal light.
