David Oliver, 57, of Suwanee, passed away July 11th. He was born in Atlanta and lived his whole life in Georgia. His mother, father, and father-in-law preceded him in death. He leaves behind his wife of 34 years, Marilu, who will forever miss him. He also leaves behind two sisters, a brother-in-law, two sisters-in-law, a mother-in-law, five nephews, two nieces and several great nephews. His father-in-law treated him like a son and often referred to him as "my David" which always made him feel so loved.
David was a devoted and loving husband and a good friend to many. He worked as an environmental driller for more than 20 years. In his youth, he spent time in South Georgia at the family's farm. After that, he spent time fishing, boating and water skiing. He enjoyed watching Nascar and auto racing, and was a lifetime Falcons fan. He enjoyed hosting cookouts and holidays at his home with his wife, family and friends. David will live on forever in our hearts and our memories.
