David Luther Obituary
Born in Dayton, Ohio on May 1, 1966, he was a son of Ann Elizabeth Wobus Luther of Mint Hill, NC and the late Thomas Andrew Luther.
David married the love of his life, Blair, and throughout their 20 year marriage became a proud father of his four children. He was a charter PSL holder and avid fan of the Carolina Panthers. David's generosity extended to his friends by establishing the annual Dad's Camping Trip in 2002, with attendees including up to 30 dads and 50 kids. He was a gifted handyman who learned the art of all things mechanical and construction from his father Tom. His friends will be forever grateful for his expertise as a seafood fry cook on their annual beach trips.
David, a member of The Well Christian Church, was a long-time member at University City United Methodist Church and a scout leader for the Boy Scouts of America Pack #65 in Mint Hill. He graduated from East Mecklenburg High School in 1985. He attended Appalachian State University where he received a B.S. in Communications.
Survivors include his wife, Blair Hinesley Luther; his children, Glenn, Mattie, Virginia and McKay; his mother Ann, his siblings, Joe Luther and wife, Misty of Atlanta, GA, Greg Luther and wife, Leah of Mint Hill, NC and a sister-in-law, Cheryl Luther Cantrell of Monroe, NC; his father and mother-in-law, Leroy and Betty Hinesley of Denton, NC; his in-laws, Lisa Hinesley Merritt and husband, Chuck; Lee Hinesley and wife, Jennifer; Scott Hinesley and wife, Sharon; his nieces and nephews, Rachel Luther Cummins and husband, James; Emily Luther Hinton and husband, Phillip; Caroline, Emma, Boone, Will and Ben Hinesley.
David was preceded in death by his father and his brother, Steve Luther.
A Celebration of Life service is planned for 2:00 pm Friday, January 19, 2018 at University City United Methodist Church with Pastor Chad Cozad officiating. The family will receive friends immediately following the service.

David was one of those men who you know you can trust implicitly. He was soft spoken and honest in dealings. He looked out for the best for you and through that came a relationship of trust and fairness. I know he was a great family man too so this news is even more devastating. I wish to share my condolences to his family and wish them courage as they take on life without this great man. From all at Boeing Research and Technology's Measurement Group we are sorry for your loss.

I had the honor of working with David for the past 17 years, in various roles I held in Qia;tu, with various companies. There has never been a more friendly, upbeat, humorous and kind person to interact with. He will be sorely missed. My sincere condolences to all his coworkers at Hexaton,and to his family.

To the family of David Luther. I have known David for many years through working together at Hexagon. He always treated me with understanding, dignity and respect. He was one of the hardest working people I know. I only got to see him occasionally, but he never failed to greet me with a warm smile and a sincere handshake. I will miss him.

To the Family. Having had the privilege and pleasure of knowing your husband and Dad for a number of years I can honestly say that a man of such small stature was one of the tallest and proudest men I have ever met. Listening to the stories he told me of past and present family and work made me smile constantly. A genuine man who is a loss to this World but an asset to the next. Prayers wishes and thoughts are with you at this time

Blair and family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. David was such a kind man. I always will remember the time he told me when I taught Glenn in the 2 year old preschool class at UCUMC Glenn and our family pray for you every night. You never know when someone's kind words stick with you throughout life and this moment was precious. God bless you and your family.
