David was born in Peoria, IL, a son of Earl and Dolly Carr. He graduated from Eureka High School, where he was active in sports. He was a devoted Hornets fan, as well as a lifelong Chicago Cubs and Bears fan. He lived in Florida for several years but spent most of his life in central Illinois. He was a fun-loving guy who was always smiling and friendly.
He is survived by his daughter, Jessica Bradway and grandson, Logan Bradway, both of Henderson, NV; nephew, Earl (Gayle) Carr; niece, Rita Clark; and great nephews.
David was preceded in death by his parents and brothers, Wayne and Jack Carr.
