David Lack Obituary

David Jason Lack, 38, of Moore Township, devoted husband and loving father, passed gently to be with his heavenly father, on Monday, January 08, 2018, at his residence, surrounded by his loving family. Dave's steadfast and unwavering bravery in his 5-year-battle with cancer touched everyone's lives. David and his wife, Cory (Scheller) Lack, were together for 20 years as childhood sweethearts, and married for 13 years. He was the son of David M. and Deborah D. (Dixon) Lack, of Moore Township. A graduate of Northampton High School, class of 1998, he attended Wilkes University where he earned a Bachelor degree in Accounting. Dave was the General Manager and Director of Finance for the Board of Directors of Associated Fasteners, Inc., Bath. Additionally, he was a partner in T&D Investments, LLC. Dave was active in Moore Township girl's softball, where he served as coach, and also played in the slowpitch men's league. He loved riding his Harley, hiking adventures, camping, and spending time with his family. Dave's quick sense of humor and witty banter made him loved by all. Survivors: In addition to his loving wife, Cory, and his parents, he is survived by three amazing, beautiful children, Jason T., Claire, and Evelyn Ann Lack, all at home; two sisters, Melissa Wright, of Northampton, and Diane Lack, of Moore Township; maternal grandmother, Helen C. Dixon, of Arkansas; paternal grandmother, Dorothy Lack, of Danielsville; parent-in-laws, Terrence and Sharon (Saylor) Scheller, of Bethlehem; two brothers-in-law, Reggie Scheller, of Allentown, and Matt Scheller and his wife, Dawn, of Chambersburg; a sister-in-law, Elizabeth Cruz and her husband, Moises, of Allentown; grandmothers-in-law, Julia Scheller, of Bethlehem, and Dolores Saylor, of Allentown; many nieces and nephews; aunts, uncles, and cousins, who will miss his everyday smile and presence. David was predeceased by his maternal grandfather, Edward J. Dixon, Jr., and paternal grandfather, Anthony Lack, as well as his grandfathers-in-law, Joseph Scheller and Leroy Saylor. Services: His Memorial Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on Friday, January 19, 2018, at 10:30 A.M. in Sacred Heart of Jesus Catholic Church, 210 E. Northampton Street, Bath, PA 18014.

so sorry to hear of the loss of Davey.

But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
1 Thessalonians 4:13-14

we all know this not good bye, we going to see each other in heaven again.

I was sorry to read about Dave. I had Dave for 9th grade Alg 2, and he also helped out in the Supply Room during his free time. Dave was a great guy, bright, funny and hard working. I never had to ask him twice to do something for me, he got the job done quickly and done right. It was a pleasure to teach him, his work was always done! Great guy!

My sincere condolences to Dave's family and close associates. Dave was a supplier of SPIG USA, Inc. for several years and I had the pleasure of speaking to him quite often.

In the last several months, we had many conversations about his health and lots of prayers went up for him. Dave will be truly missed. God Bless Him, May Eternal Light Shine Upon Him.
