David was happy to fulfill his dream of moving to Maine. he was a jack-of-all trades who loved woodworking, gardening, and trapping. he loved music, was a great dancer and was an avid reader. some of his happiest times were spent putting together a yearly pig roast for a family and friends reunion, much fun was had by all and there were lots of great memories. "Only You". He spent a lot of time on Narragansett Bay, he enjoyed boating and fishing and spent many days off from the Fire Dept. working the water, shell-fishing. Davids family would like to thank the nursing staff, Dr. Gomez and Dr. Toledo of Redington-Fairveiw for their compassionate care of David. We are very grateful. At Davids request there will be no funeral. The family will have a celebration of life at a later date.
