It is with heavy hearts that we announce the peaceful passing of David Wayne Booker on October 15, 2026, at the age of 65. Born on March 26, 1961, in the sunny city of San Diego, California, David lived a life full of adventure, kindness, and love. He departed this world surrounded by the warmth of his home and the love of his devoted wife, Marian, by his side. David was the beloved son of George and Dana Booker, who predeceased him. He carried their legacy forward through his unwavering dedication to his family and work. David's career was marked by his time as a truck driver, a profession that allowed him to traverse the vast landscapes of our country, experiencing its beauty and diversity while providing for his loved ones with diligence and pride. David was a cherished husband to Marian, with whom he shared 35 beautiful years of marriage. Together, they built a life filled with laughter, love, and mutual respect.

His siblings, George (married to Sarah), Edward (married to Cynthia), and Janet (married to Henry), remember him as a brother whose spirit and generosity knew no bounds. David's legacy also extends to his dear nieces and nephews, who will forever hold his memory close to their hearts. Family meant everything to David, and he found immense joy in the simplest of moments shared with them. His daughter Trista recalls her father's enduring wisdom, saying, "My father always said that God doesn't give you anything you can't handle. You fought a hard fight Daddy, rest now. I've got it from here." David's life was a testament to resilience, love, and a deep faith that carried him through life's challenges. His gentle strength and compassionate spirit touched the lives of all who had the privilege of knowing him.
