David Ramsey Obituary

David passed away peacefully and went home to our Lord April 28th, 2017 after a short hard fought battle with Pancreatic Cancer.

He leaves behind Sheila his wife of 31 years who was with him, holding him and showing all the love possible to make his final journey. He also leaves his faithful doggie daughter Sofi who stood and watched over him during this time.

David had many interests and passions, and worked as a self-contractor for over 20 years completing the maintenance and repairs on rental properties in Colorado Springs. You might know him from the big red truck with sicky notes on the wind shield, which everyone thought was too funny. He was a person who was very out spoken but if he gave his word or his friendship you always knew he would be there for you, always offering to help in any way he could. David was the kindest gentle man I ever knew.

Mr. D you will be missed so much, words can never express how much. This is not a good bye but a "until we meet again". Love You Always Sheila.

3725 El Morror Road Colorado springs Co.
