David Michael Desrosiers, age 67, a longtime resident of Nashua, NH, passed away peacefully at Southern NH Medical Center in Nashua, NH on Sunday, September 28, 2025 surrounded by his loving family.

David was a graduate of Greater Lowell Regional Vocational Technical High School. He was a talented painter by trade, known for his skill and dedication.

David had a passion for the outdoors and a competitive spirit. He loved to spend his time fishing, playing cards, and tossing horseshoes. A devoted fan of local sports, he was always cheering on the New England Patriots and the Boston Red Sox, and he enjoyed watching any sporting event.

David is survived by his siblings, Dottie Tancreti and her husband Matthew of Nashua and James Desrosiers and his wife Janice of Dracut, as well as many loving nieces, nephews, cousins, family members and friends.
