David Brian Lomon of Iola, Kansas, passed away early Sunday, November 3, 2024, at his sister's home in Parsons, Kansas, following a brief battle with cancer. He was 56 years old.
Born on October 2, 1968, at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, David was the son of Ralph and Shirley (Pool) Adams. He grew up on the family farm near Colony, Kansas, where he attended Colony-Crest Elementary School and served as Class President. David graduated from St. John's Military Academy in Salina, Kansas, before returning to the farm to pursue his passion for farming and raising livestock. A lover of the outdoors, David enjoyed hunting and riding his motorcycle. He had a fondness for animals, particularly cats, and was a talented artist who loved drawing. In the mid-1990s, David moved to Iola to care for his mother.
David is survived by his sister, Regan Sherman (Steve) of Parsons, Kansas; two nieces, Rya Sherman (Adam) and Maley Swift (Michael); a nephew, Porter Sherman (Olivia); two grandnephews, Rayin Sherman and Alic Swift; three great-nieces, Rayna Sherman, Kyra Chase, and Ainsley Sherman; his mother, Shirley Wilson of Iola; and many other relatives and friends. He was a devoted caregiver and played an active role in the lives of his nieces and nephew.
Funeral services will be held at 1:30 P.M. on Saturday, November 9, 2024, at Campbell Funeral Home in Yates Center, Kansas. In honor of David, attendees are invited to wear concert or tie-dyed T-shirts.
