In his free time you could always find him doing what he really loved, drawing, building, and fixing things. He also enjoyed going to the casino and spending time with those he loved. David was the most creative, funny, loving, and supportive man, who would do anything for the people he loved. He was always the one to light up any room he was in with love and especially laughter! He was definitely known for being quite the jokester! He will be missed greatly by all who knew and loved him.
