David Giorgi Obituary

David passed away peacefully after a brief and courageous battle with cancer at the age of 58 in Stockton, CA on the morning of November 22, 2014. David was born in Lodi, CA to Gino & Betty Giorgi and grew up in Acampo on the family's ranch.
David graduated from Lodi High School and worked in the agriculture industry for many years in Lodi and most recently for the Lagorio Family of Companies – ACE Tomato. He also worked for Angelina's in Lodi and Stockton. David enjoyed spending time in South Lake Tahoe snow skiing and spending time with friends. He had a passion for sports, especially his beloved Oakland Raiders. If you needed to know anything about the Raiders or any other team, he had the answer. David also enjoyed history, reading, music, especially the Rolling Stones, and loved collecting sports and music memorabillia.
David leaves behind his Brothers Bill Ferreira (Sharon) of Acampo and Tom Giorgi of Lodi; Sister Stephanie Schneider (Eric) of Lodi; Nephews Tony Ferreira (Julie) of Lodi and Jason Browning of Rancho Cordova; Nieces Melanie Pinochi (Mike) of Pioneer, and Emily Schneider of Lodi; Great-Nieces Carignane and Tessa Ferreira and Isabella Pinochi; Great-Nephews Noah and Owen Pinochi and Luca Ferreira.

David - I can't believe you left us so quickly. You'll be dearly missed. Your easy smile and friendly nature made you loved by everyone who knew you. I'll always remember our long meandering late-night phone conversations when we were in high school. My condolences to the family.

Doesn't seem all that long ago we were chasing rabbits at the ranch, fishing in the river and getting yelled at for driving the ranch truck without permission. Rest in peace my friend.

Heart felt sympathy to your family, and friends during this difficult time . The promise made at 1 Thessalonian 4: 14 says "For if we we have faith Jesus died. And rose again, so too God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep in death through Jesus." May these words bring comfort to you at this time.
