David was a true lover of art who found peace in drawing, sketching, and reading. He was known for "gifting" his children and grandchildren abstract drawings, playfully keeping them guessing at their true meanings. An avid sports fan, David loved both watching and playing the game; he especially cherished his memories on the golf course, often recounting the time he played at the legendary Pebble Beach.

Although he lived with the challenges of mental illness for much of his life, his love for his children and grandchildren remained constant and unwavering. David possessed a kind and gentle soul that will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
