David devoted his life to education—the above accomplishments totaling 25 years of service in TUSD. He was a dedicated employee and a caring colleague. His motto, borrowed from Stephen Covey, was "seek first to understand, then to be understood." He was most proud of the Pueblo College Prep Academy he helped establish three years ago, which seeks to provide a challenging education opportunity for students who seek a more rigorous academic experience and intensive college preparation.
At home David was an incredible father. His guidance pushed each to be their best. He enjoyed camping, fishing, traveling, golfing, and playing all kinds of games. Although he left too soon, he modeled what it means to be a good man, a loving husband, and a hard worker.
Despite following every coronavirus precaution, Dave had compromised immunity and succumbed to the virus February 8, 2022. His family and friends loved him deeply and he reciprocated that love unconditionally. He led by example, becoming a friend to everyone he met. He always looked for beauty in everything and the best in people, which enabled his departure from this world with no regrets or unsettled scores. Dave will be greeted with open arms by his parents, Bertha and Rafael, who preceded him in death. He is survived by his devoted wife, adoring children, and siblings.
