David met his future wife Evelyn at the 1976 Summer Olympic games in Montreal. David and Evelyn got married in 1978 and went on to have two children, Christopher and Melanie.

During David's free time you could find him relaxing in the backyard by the pool, golfing, reading a book, or travelling to a warm destination during the winter months.

David always tried to be there for his family. He was a loving Father and Husband, he will be greatly missed.

At David's request there will be no formal service. His Ashes will be scattered by the river in his hometown.
