David worked for Braswell Shipyard most of his life as a carpenter and painter. He was known for being a tough but good supervisor.
He was known by his family as Kenneth.
He enjoyed restoring old cars, especially trucks. He had a green thumb and could recall the names of any plants he came across. He loved to fish especially with his great grandson,  Kymeek. He enjoyed family history and sharing that knowledge with others.  Memorial service will be held on Saturday July 20th, 2019, 1:00pm at Greater Heights Church of God, 2625 South Live Oak Drive, Moncks Corner SC.  Arrangements are being handled by Simplicity Lowcountry Cremation and Burial Services Summerville.
