Age 76 of Hendersonville, TN passed away August 26. David was born in Chickasaw County, MS. He was a graduate of Woodland High School. Prior to moving to Hendersonville, TN in 1978 he lived in Sparta and Houston, MS. He retired from Bailey Company after over thirty years of dedicated service. He loved celebrating the holidays with his family, grilling out, making home-made ice cream, and watching football. All of these activities encompassed the family he loved so dearly. He was also a talented musician, and was a member of the Sparta Ramblers Band. He had many musical talents; he sang, played drums, played guitar, and even played piano.
He was influenced most by those he loved, his wife, children, grandchildren, brother, sisters, and friends. David enjoyed the great outdoors, gardening, fishing, and hunting. He also relished the study of history and politics. When it came to politics, Fox News was his trusted source for current events. Above all, David was a man of strong faith in the Lord. His grandchildren can even recall his physical strength and agility which manifested itself in his ability to “squash a bumblebee with his bare hands.” The family will always remember his legacy as a family man and storyteller. He was a true example of humility and honesty to all.
He is preceded in death by his parents, Howard Carter and Christine Burgess; sister, Nancy Wilson.
