Obituary
It's the early morning hours, still dark, but in the darkness you can just make out the shadow of a man with a bow and arrows slung over his back. Silently and with great stealth he makes his way quietly up the tree and sits in his tree stand that's been in the same place for years now. He's waiting and watching, anticipating what he will see at sunrise. With slow movements almost silently, he readies his bow. His arrow with a razor sharp broadhead tip
is in it's place. He's waiting, listening, watching. The dawn breaks, the sunrises then he hears it. Soft footsteps in the leaves. He looks to the right, his breathing gets heavier, the buck that he's been waiting for looks up.The hunter pulls back his arrow, aims, releases..... This is David, a man of God, a son, husband,father, and grandfather. David M. Staggs born December 7, 1957 in Andrews, Texas to Barbara Tidwell Staggs and James Staggs both deceased.
David and his wife Regina were married February 14th, 1980, they have two children Lauren Brown (husband Kenny), Daniel Staggs (wife Keilah),and 8 grandchildren Keziah 12, Ezra 9, Esther 8, August 7, Ian 7, Willa Eve 5, Zera 1, Theodora 1.
His siblings are Jimmie Charles Staggs, Paul Staggs, Kelly Baker, Tidwell Staggs and Stephen Staggs.
David was a carpenter by trade and artistic in all that he did. A man that enjoyed life to the fullest whether he was hunting, fishing , caring for his family, or just watching a sunset. Some of his artistic achievement over the years were flat bottom boats, kayaks, coffins, longbows and recurves, knives, an assortment of wood furniture and custom cabinet doors just to name a few. His last creation was a beautiful blackberry fruit wine that is truly a gift to many who enjoy it.
This is the man that the Lord has called into eternal life....
