David worked his entire career, 37 years, for United Parcel Service. He began his career as a UPS driver, and with his strong work ethic and determination, worked his way up to the position of Regional Vice President. David eventually relocated to the Atlanta Corporate Office where he retired in 1994. After retirement, he relocated to Mississippi where he spent the remainder of his years with his wife and loving family.
A very devout man of faith, David was a dedicated member of St. Francis Catholic Church in Madison. He and his wife also frequently visited Saint Catherine's Chapel and St. Paul's Church.
The family would like to thank The Cancer Center at St. Dominic for their care throughout his illness, the staff and nurses of Sta-home Health Hospice, as well as his caregiver, Beverly House, for her love and dedication.
David was a loving husband and devoted father. He will be greatly missed by his family, friends, and work colleagues. The family will hold a small, private service.
