David Edward McNally, 49, of James Island, SC passed away on Wednesday, June 19, 2024.
Born on May 17, 1975, in Charleston SC, he was the son of William Richard McNally and Else Doris Glock.
David had many talents in the trades, specializing in carpentry, he had an eye for woodworking. He had a way of taking something broken and making it into something beautiful.
David loved with everything in him, and his smile was contagious. It was often said he would “give his shirt off his back,” so it is to no surprise the amount of friends he made through the years and how he touched so many hearts.
David was the all-American man. He was a great son, husband, brother, father, grandfather and friend. He worked hard and he played even harder. He loved the beach, motorcycles, climbing trees, playing his guitar, skateboarding and he was a excellent cook.
David believed in nothing more than the power of prayer. His faith in the strength of God remained even in his last days.
David is preceded in death by his brother, Patrick Michael McNally.
David is survived by his father, William McNally, his mother, Else McNally, his sister, Linda Bridges, his brother in law, Jeff Bridges, his wife, Jennifer Dane McNally, his brother in law, Malcom Dane, his daughter, Madison White McNally, his son in law Patrick Urick, his daughter, Trinity McNally, his son, Tanner McNally, his step son, James Hardin, his step daughter, Carol Hardin, and his three grandchildren, Owen White, Olive Browder, and Michael Urick.
