David Michael Battles, 53, of Dothan Al, unexpectedly passed away on September 8, 2022.
David was born on August 3, 1969 to Lynn and Helen Battles in Cherry Hill, NJ. After graduating from Cherokee High School, he went studied at Monmouth College and ECU. He quickly became a successful warehouse manager.
By the grace of God, he met and married Sarah. They went on to have four beautiful girls, Kayla, Kennedy, Kylie and Kelsey.
David, was a force of nature, determined to provide for his family and give them the life he felt they deserved. His family meant more to him than anything else in the world. He was unendingly proud of Kayla, Kennidy, Kylie, Kelsey and his wife Sarah and always tried his best to support them.
He was a passionate artist. One of favorite times was when he had his family around the dIning room table painting. Often posting their works on Facebook for family to guess who did what. His daughters also possess his artistic talents and were quickly mastering his artistic skills.
Anyone who knew David knew that he was the most loving father and husband a family could ask for. His past nine months were spent at home with his family, cherishing their new found time together. David was the only son to Helen and Lynn Battles. A son who made them proud and loved. A witty, sarcastic and fun loving brother to Dawn, Deena and Doreen. He was a die hard Philadelphia Eagles fan (proud of their Super Bowl win) and of the Philadelphia Flyers. He loved playing Frisbee golf with his family in the yard and at the park.

Siblings: Dawn (Bill) Gliesman, Deena (Lawrence) O’Toole and Doreen (Michael) Hess and a multitude of nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
