Ft. Myers, Florida - It is with great sadness that the family of David Rheaume announces his passing on Wednesday, July 11, 2018, at the age of 78 years.

David is pre-deceased by parents William (Bill) and Mabel and sister Jeannie Pikora.

David was born and grew up in Worcester, Massachusetts where he joined the Massachusetts National Guard. In 1971 he moved his family to Ft. Myers, Florida, where he was a master electrician and was the owner of David's Electric service.

David was active in competition shooting, hunting and fishing. He was a Master Mason and a Lee County Special Deputy.
