David Douglas Jefferson Maughan

It is with heavy hearts and profound sadness that we announce the passing of David Douglas Jefferson Maughan. He left us much too soon. David passed away suddenly on the early morning of June 23, 2026. David was born on October 21, 1970, in Seattle, Washington. David's life was a testament to love, dedication, and a passion for both family and community.

David was the cherished son of Roberta Ann Shawver and William Lowell Maughan. He was a devoted husband to Chelsea Fenton Maughan, with whom he shared a bond that was truly extraordinary. Their marriage was a beautiful partnership filled with laughter, warmth, and unyielding support for one another. Together, they created a home filled with love, sports, and endless joy, nurturing the family was the center of David's world.

David's three sons, Rhett, Camden, and Beckham, were his pride and joy. He was not only their father but also their mentor, coach, and biggest fan. His passion for basketball was something he shared with his boys, teaching them not only the skills of the game but also the values of teamwork, discipline, and sportsmanship. His legacy will surely live on in them, as they continue to carry the torch of his love for the game and life.

He is survived by his Dad Lowell (Linda); Mom Roberta Shawver; and loving family sister Krista; his brother Michael Maughan (Cristina); younger sister Melissa Maughan (Brian); sister-in-law Tiffany Fenton- Dima (Mario); as well as several nieces and nephews. The bond he shared with his siblings was one of mutual respect and deep affection, a testament to the strong family ties that were so important to him.

As we remember David, we celebrate a life well-lived, one that was filled with love, laughter, and a profound impact on all who had the privilege to know him.

A service will be held to honor David's life, celebrating the wonderful husband, father, son, brother, and friend he was. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to local youth sports programs, ensuring that David's passion for mentorship and coaching continues to inspire future generations.

David will be dearly missed, but his legacy will live on in the hearts of those he touched. He is now at peace, knowing the profound love and gratitude we hold for him always. There will never be a better father or husband.
