In Loving Memory of David
March 31, 1987 – May 21, 2025
With hearts full of sorrow and love, we share the heartbreaking news of the passing of David, who left us far too soon at the age of 38.
Born in Oakland, California, and raised in San Lorenzo, David’s life was one filled with laughter, love, and deep connections.
From an early age, he brought light to those around him—brightening every room with his warm presence, quick wit, and playful sense of humor. He made people laugh with ease, often through a goofy expression or a perfectly timed joke, always reminding us not to take life too seriously.
David was the youngest of five children. Though the loss of his beloved parents left a deep mark, he carried their spirit with him every day. He lived with a kind heart, a generous soul, and a resilience that inspired those who knew him.
His passions reflected the richness of his spirit. Music was a lifelong love—his guitar often in hand, a melody always close by. He also found connection and joy through online gaming, where he built friendships that crossed borders and backgrounds. And when it came to taking care of his body, David was unwavering in his dedication. The gym was his sanctuary, a place where he showed his quiet strength and determination.
David shared a special bond with those closest to him. He is survived by his siblings and extended family who mourn his loss and hold his memory close.
David touched countless lives with his humor, his passion, and his unwavering loyalty. Though he is no longer with us, the love he gave so freely continues to echo in the hearts of everyone who knew him.
He will be missed beyond words—and remembered forever.
