David Leon Mossman passed away on September 17, 2022. He was 79. David was born to the late Robert Blanchard and Freda Blanche (Anderson) Mossman on March 14, 1943 in Lafayette, IN.

David is survived by his daughters, Jenni (Josh) Wygant and Stacey (Mark, deceased) Diamond; grandchildren, Mason (Mackenzie) Troyer, Oliver Wygant, Kyle, Nicole and Ryan Diamond; nephews, Chris (Kathy) Hawley and their son Brandon and Jeff Hawley.

David was preceded in death by his sister and brother-in-law, Carol and Jack Hawley.

David graduated with a bachelor's degree from Purdue University and worked as a chemist for Miles Laboratory's and then worked at Environmental Testing Systems.

He loved science, golf and all things Purdue. He loved cats, but was terribly allergic. He loved all music and twinkies, but he mostly loved his children and grandchildren. David never missed an event for any of them. He will be missed.

No services are planned at this time. David's wishes were to be cremated and his ashes spread in a special place that he chose.
