He enjoyed dining out, especially Asian cuisine, and was always willing to try something new. He had an appreciation for different flavors and cultures, although menudo remained his all-time favorite. Those who knew him well will fondly remember his special favorites: watermelon, pineapple, and Orange Crush, little things that became part of the memories they will forever cherish.

David shared 23 years of marriage with the love of his life, Mami. He also had a special place in his heart for his beloved little dog, Kiki, his precious baby girl, who brought him so much happiness and companionship.

David’s life was defined by his accomplishments, curiosity, love of adventure, and the special connections he shared with those closest to him. His memory will live on through the stories, laughter, and countless moments cherished by his family and all who had the privilege of knowing him.
