Grandpa "Pa" passed away on Sunday August 15, 2010 at Dominican Hospital in Santa Cruz. He was 71 years old.
David was a man full of life and enjoyed making others laugh. He loved meeting new people and performing his “chicken” joke for them. An expert on classic Hollywood trivia, he knew many of the local movie stars who have retired here and spent hours talking with them about their careers. He loved animals and had many beloved dogs over the course of his life. Since moving to Bonny Doon several years ago he enjoyed seeing and feeding the deer and wild turkey who would often stroll up to the house for a visit. He loved working with his hands and around the family property. However, to this day it’s still a mystery to his family why he loved painting everything green from lawn chairs to cars.
As a father and husband he enjoyed putting on barbeques bringing his family together for good food and great company.
David’s family would like to thank all the friends, family, and staff in ICU of Dominican Hospital for their support and love. He was a great man, member of the community, husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle, and friend. He was a man we could all count on for help, support, and love. He will be greatly missed!
