David Krick Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
David was a son, husband, father, uncle, and best friend. His 6'5 frame barely contained his larger-than-life presence that brought joy, laughter, protection, and comfort to those he loved. He retired from the Air Force in June after 20 years of service, and began work with the Department of Homeland Security using his Environmental Science degree.
David had so much passion for the world around him, and he celebrated it daily. He reveled in riding his motorcycle, frequented his favorite camping spots, snuggled with pets, tried new foods, and played games every chance he got. David was also a huge supporter of his fellow veterans and served their community through the Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association (CVMA) to which he was known as "Goliath."
David loved nothing more than his family and dedicated his life and his time to them. He is survived by his wife, Tabathamarie; his daughters Paris, Mika, Lexi and bonus daughters Karizma and Veyda; his parents, Lynda (Larry) and Brian (Theresa); his sister Amber and bonus siblings Robert, Tiara, and Tisha; as well as all his nieces and nephews who cherished him.
A celebration of David will be held at All Veterans Funeral & Cremation on October 18th at noon. Following will be a procession to Pikes Peak National Cemetery and Reception at American Legion #38.
In lieu of flowers, we ask that you consider a donation to the CVMA (CVMA3-2.org) to be used for Charitable Funds in memory of David "Goliath" Krick.
We love you David.

Krick, your passing has shocked me beyond measure. Even though we haven't been around each other since our days in North Beach, I still remember our times fondly. Some of my best times both on and off duty included you. It's hard to think of those years without thinking of you. I wish we had gotten the chance to catch up after your retirement. I, like so many take our time for granted. I know your family to include your wife, daughters, and dog will miss you and think of you constantly for the rest of their lives. But, there are an untold number of people you have touched that will feel an emptiness much like I feel now. I love and miss you my friend and brother.
