David Christopher DeLisle, of Pepperell, Massachusetts, passed unexpectedly on Sunday, December 17th, 2023 at the age of 39. Born in Lowell, Massachusetts on October 12th, 1984, he graduated from Shawsheen Valley Technical School. He went on to receive many construction certifications and his superintendent license, leading him to construction management. He excelled as a leader and supervisor, guiding numerous large projects throughout New England, working most recently for Marathon Construction and Development.     

David had a lifelong passion for drag racing cars, especially with his cherished Cadillac CTS V. He also spent many years training and competing in powerlifting. Although this gained him a strong exterior, he held a large, warm heart. From his children - their sports, talents and interests - to his nieces and nephews, he beamed with pride. Never falling short of expressing his love to his wife, children, family members and friends. With daily phone calls and frequent check-in’s, David made clear that the people in his life meant everything to him. Outside of family, friends, and his pets - Italian food and his wife’s baking, always put a smile on his face. 

 

David is survived by his father, Dennis J. DeLisle and wife Judy DeLisle of Hubbardston; His mother Teresa DeLisle of Lowell; His brother Dennis D. DeLisle and wife Courtney DeLisle, and their two children Riley and Mya of Jaffrey, New Hampshire.

He will also be greatly missed by his in-law family, including several nieces and nephews, and many friends.
