David was born on April 3, 1944, in Butler, PA., as the only child of Charl=
es and Mary Parks.
David lived in Butler before graduating from Carnegie Tech (now Carnegie-Me=
llon), in 1967. He met his wife Joyce in 1978, and together they enjoyed 33=
years of marriage, making their home in Prosperity. They shared a passion =
of British sports cars, participating in the Western Pennsylvania Triumph A=
ssociation, and traveling, completing three trips to England, exploring Can=
cun, Mexico, and many excursions throughout the United States. Committed to=
a life of service, he was a member of DeMolay, Tall Cedars of Lebanon, Syr=
ia Shriners, Scottish Rite, Free Masonry, and is a Past Master of Sunset Bl=
ue Lodge (1993). He was member of the Benevolent and Protective Order of El=
ks for 38 years.
He and Joyce served the Lord at Jefferson Avenue United Methodist Church.
His professional career began in television broadcasting with stops in Wash=
ington D.C. and St. Louis.
He eventually returned to western PA with a desire to go into business for =
himself. Through various periods of his life he owned and operated David=92=
s Mobile Home Heating and Air Conditioning, Interstate Radiator and Prosper=
ity Greenhouse. During his early years he drove and turned wrenches on a Tr=
iumph GT6 (previously owned by Group 44 Inc), his own Formula Ford, Sport R=
enaults and other race cars at tracks all over the country. David=92s passi=
on for motorsports eventually evolved into restoring classic English cars. =
He kept busy in retirement building furniture and other wood crafts, follow=
ing in his grandfather=92s footsteps. In 2017, he moved to Lake Mary, Flori=
da with his son and his family. While there, he attended Grace United Metho=
dist Church, was a member of the Central Florida Woodworkers Guild, and the=
Central Florida Triumph Register. He was frequently found in the stands of=
his grandson=92s football and hockey games, cheering them on. Blessed with=
the gift of gab, he was verbose, but equally quick to lend an ear. David t=
ruly believed strangers were simply friends he hadn=92t yet met.
Friends will be received Thursday September 26, 2019 from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. =
at William G. Neal Funeral Homes Ltd., 925 Allison Ave, Washington, where s=
