David Henry Embrey, 84, of Bradenton Florida, passed away on August 13, 2025.

He is survived by two daughters and their mother, who was formerly married to the deceased; two grandchildren; three sisters; and one brother.

Family and friends will gather together to honor and remember a man who was not only a gentleman but a man with a gentle spirit. He never forgot to say "love ya" at the end of a conversation, a simple phrase that will be deeply missed.
