David Luce Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Feb. 5, 2024.
David Leroy Luce, also known as Dave, passed away on January 18th. 2024, at the age of 66 in Marysville, Washington. Born on August 22, 1957, in Spokane, Washington, Dave was a beloved son, brother, and friend. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

Dave had a heart of gold and was known for his honorable nature. He was a true patriot and a generous individual, always willing to lend a helping hand. His kindness and love touched the lives of many. Dave's blue eyes were legendary, and he cherished them as a trait inherited from his dear father.

Dave is survived by his mother, Patricia A Luce, his stepbrother Robert J Luce, his sister Marjorie J (Luce) Mitchell, and his brother Roger W Luce. He was preceded in death by his father, WARREN Leroy Luce, his grandmother Pearl I Armstrong, his grandmother Mamie Luce, and his grandfather Leroy Luce.

Dave proudly served in the United States Navy and had strong military associations throughout his life. His dedication and commitment to his country were admirable.

In his free time, Dave enjoyed boating, which brought him great joy and relaxation. It was a hobby that allowed him to connect with nature and find peace on the water.
Dave's best friend Phil, was always there for Dave and the two had many years of friendship they were two of a kind.

I will miss you so much Dave, I have the memories of when I was little and you would put me on your shoulders. Your laugh, your beautiful eyes, your wonderful out look on life, your kindness, it will all be missed! You always were willing to help anyone out, you were selfless and kind. May you be able to sail the seas and be at peace, I love you always!
