David was born on August 27, 1944 in Salem, Massachusetts to his parents Robert Tedford and Mary McKeen Tedford.
He was formerly a Sales Representative with a mechanical engineering company.
David moved to Brevard County from Plymouth, Massachusetts four years ago, but he and his wife Judy had been wintering here for some time.
His grandchildren and cruising were the things in life that put a smile on his face. David and Judy had been on 40 cruises and had plans for many more.
David was preceded in death by his parents Robert and Mary Tedford and his brother Bruce Tedford.
He is survived by his wife Judith A. Tedford, children Traci Milligan of Rhode Island, Scott Tedford of Massachusetts, stepdaughter Elizabeth Klinkenberg of Ohio, stepson Gary Paul of Florida; grandchildren Cameron Tedford, Tyler Tedford, Emma Milligan, Abby Milligan, and step granddaughter Devyn Paul.
