David left a legacy of love for sports with his children, his friends and former players. He absolutely loved coaching sports from baseball and basketball to volleyball. His passion and enthusiasm could be seen with each and every play he coached. He could always be seen wearing swag from his West Virginia Mountaineers, Baltimore Orioles, Pittsburgh Steelers, Florida State Seminoles, Quince Orchard Cougars and the Washington Capitals. Not only was David an avid sports fan as a coach and spectator but he was an avid participant from golf to volleyball to working out in his spare time.
