David S. Bernstein, 59, died October 10, 2025. Born on Long Island, NY, he was a long-time resident of Ft. Collins. He was preceded in death by his parents, Ray and Sylvia, and his beloved brother Jimmy. A life-long musician, he is survived by his sister Nancy, his brother-in-law, a niece and a nephew and their children, who all regret not having had more opportunities and time to know him better and who wish they could hear him play his guitar one more time. David faced many challenges in his life, and his family hopes that he is now at peace. If you knew David or see anyone you love in this description, please support organizations who try to help those who fight addiction and other adverse life impacts, such as Southgate Church in Fort Collins (https://southgate.church/give-online/) or the Murphy Center https://www.homewardalliance.org/murphy-center/how-to-help/ in his memory.
