Esposito, Wyomissing; and two siblings, Richard Esposito and Ruth Gehris. He is also survived by six granddaughters: Christin, Cerisse, Ayla, Fatima, Kelsey, and Chloe; and five great-grandchildren.

Our sincere condolences over the loss of Uncle David. We were grateful to hear he passed peacefully. Dom and I always enjoyed our talks with him especially hearing about all his many travels. Always remember the years growing going to Reheboth with our families . I have so many fond memories of him and all of us back then. All the Christmas party games he and Aunt Jean would run. So many fun years growing up as one big Italian family. He was a very kind and gentle man. Uncle David is now in heaven with my dad and all his family . May your many years of happy memories console you. He will be missed but never forgotten.
Love,
Linda and Dom
