David had been retired from teaching since June 1990. His career started in the trades as a qualified Tool and Diemaker, working for Ford Motor Company in Windsor, Ontario. He was recruited into teaching at a time when there was a demand for qualified trade teachers in vocational high school programs. His teaching career was spent at John F. Ross C.V.I (Guelph) where he taught Machine Shop, Auto Shop and Math.

The family would like to thank all the staff at Stirling Heights LTC for their care of David this year.
