David's obituary
David served in the Reserves with the Army Medical Corps for 8 years, volunteered with his local ambulance squad, and spent many hours serving the homeless community with New York City Relief. In response to Jesus’ commandment to love one another as we have been loved by God, his heart was always for others, to love them and to serve them, and to share his deep faith. Davids occupation started in pharmaceutical sales, then to laboratory medical sales including computer soft ware.
David’s greatest joy was his marriage of 58 years to the bride of his youth and love of his life, Carol Christine (Seaburgh) Wade. They met at Upsala College in East Orange, New Jersey. They belonged to The Masterworks Choir performing in such venues as Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center, and music continued as an ever-present part of family life. Together they set an example of love and commitment for their four children Allison, Gregory, Holly and Jason, maintaining a sense of humor and interest in life. After retirement he and his wife opened a preserves business to create delicious fruit products and sold them together at farmers’ markets and in local stores. David was also a charter members of Grace Christian Fellowship in Bainbridge, NY.
David was blessed with a peaceful passing at home, and is now in the presence of his Savior and Lord, worshiping for all eternity. To be absent from the body is to be present with Lord.
