David Shillinger Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers from Jun. 20 to Jun. 21, 2023.
Dave worked as a railroad engineer for 42 years and loved his job and the many friends he worked with. He was an avid YMCA member. He enjoyed his motorcycle, swimming, bicycling and working out. He was always making sure everyone had fun when around him with games and new adventures.

He leaves behind his wife Linda of 56 years, son David and daughter in law Heather, numerous family members and lifelong friends. He always said when he passed he wanted a simple phrase " and away we go".

There are no calling hours and donations can be made to Truman Hospice House, 716 Commercial Ave SW, New Philadelphia, OH 44663. Their wonderful care and compassion readied him for his next journey.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
