April 13th, 2025 at the age of 63David Wayne Heath of Frankton entered eternal rest on April 13th, 2025, following an extended battle with cancer; he was 63.
David was born in Anderson on April 17, 1961, the second son of Jerry and Lola Heath. A graduate of Frankton High School, he attended classes at Indiana University and Ball State University. He would go on to hold several positions at different points throughout his life, including his role as a school bus driver, but David's focus was always on his farm.
Kindhearted and straightforward, David's warmth and positivity were felt by many. One of his greatest joys was driving the bus for the school sports teams, for which he was often requested. He was also a dedicated member of Frankton Christian Church, as well as his fraternity, Theta Chi. Although he never tired of afternoons on the golf course, David was a homebody at heart. He loved spending time with his pets, tending to his garden, or enjoying a classic film. The loss of his quiet and compassionate spirit will be greatly felt by each of his loved ones.
David is survived by his cousins, Susan (Terry) Poole, Andrea Kiehlmeirer, Jeff Neese, Matt (Roxanne) Jackson, and Ann (Danny) Jackson. He was preceded in death by his parents, Jerry and Lola Heath, and his brother, Ricky Heath.
