He furthered his studies at Georgia Tech, where he received his degree in architecture. During his career as an architect, he worked at Richardson and Associates, Tribble and Richardson, DS Atlantic, and Dunwody Beeland Architects.

David and I started the Indian Dance Team when we were Camp Ben Hawkins staff members and used our Indian costumes to entertain thousands of audiences from Macon City Auditorium. Janie really High School and many camp sites at Ben Hawkins. David was always a WARRIOR in everything he did and he will be missed by his Lanier classmates of 1956 and those architectural companies that he owned or work for later in his life. He was a STRAIGHT ARROW in everything he did in his LIFE.

David was always such a true Southern Gentleman. Such great times we had as our families gathered for the Ga Tech/ Auburn games. He will be so missed.
