Visit the Lee Funeral Home - Owings website to view the full obituary.

David E. Floyd, 56, of Port Republic, Maryland. Beloved husband of Dana Floyd, loving father of Hunter (AJ) and Tristen, and adored “Papa "of Elliana. Beloved son of Dennis and Hannelore Floyd of Solomon’s Island, MD and brother of Carolyn Floyd (Jimmy), of Owings, MD and Wayne Floyd (Christine), of Leonardtown, MD. He is also survived by a host of aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, friends and acquaintances, not only from Maryland, but other areas in the U.S., as well as Germany.

Dave was born in 1968 in Ammersfort, Holland and moved to Maryland in 1969. He was a lifelong resident of Calvert County, having graduated from Northern High School in 1986. Dave had an extreme passion for fitness and boxing/kickboxing and was an accomplished bodybuilder. These endeavors were a defining part of his life, as evidenced through the many awards and acknowledgements he received throughout the years. In addition to his previous career in the tire and auto business, his former gym ownership, and his current sales career with Suburban Propane, Dave also practiced real estate locally for Keller Williams.

Dave was a faithful attendant of Chesapeake Church in Huntingtown, Maryland and served as part of Chesapeake’s security team. Dave’s faith was important to him, and anyone who knew him knew of his love for his Lord and Savior. Dave’s love for and his protection and adoration of his wife of 33 years, Dana, and their children, Hunter and Tristen, and his granddaughter, Elliana, was beyond evident. He was a larger than life presence, and that presence will be sorely missed by those who loved him so.

Flowers per the family request, lilies are not preferred.
