David had many interests that included reading and politics. He loved to grill on his many grills and enjoyed having friends over for a good meal. David also enjoyed good food… Southern and Cajun Cuisine, with gumbo and steak being his favorites. Another favorite pastime was sitting on the deck at the cabin in Arkansas and watching the hummingbirds, deer, squirrels, and many of God’s creatures. He enjoyed his music and loved to dance. David was a fun guy who enjoyed people and laughter.

He and Marie, his wife of 36 years, enjoyed traveling. He enjoyed taking their camper on trips with friends. On these trips he dearly loved fishing, and in the evening, sitting by the campfire with friends.
