David was born March 1, 1958 to Shirley Ann Wells and David Lige Elliott, Sr. David’s life seemed too short to many, but those who were touched by him understood that the quality of existence far exceeds the quantity of time in which one lives.

He served in the United States Army for 8 years as an Artillery Repairman and Fire Control Instrument Repairer. Following the military he worked many years as a contractor and the past 12 years worked at VA Canteen Services retiring two years ago. Retirement years were spent fishing, camping, enjoying the outdoors and studying the word of God. Survived by spouse Rhonda Hall, daughter Stephanie Blythe, (2) Sisters, Debra Perrin and Kim Durst (Doug Durst), and (1) Brother, Michael Schmidt (Meredith Schmidt). One granddaughter, (3) nieces, (5) nephews and (3) great nieces. A Celebration of Life with friends and family will be held Saturday, September 15, 2018 from 12:00 P.M.

September 13, 2018 at 6:12 pmLife is the greatest gift that GOD has given us. Death is only a bridge towards external life with GOD. Certainly, HEAVEN is rejoicing for another soul has finally reached his true home. My Deepest Condolences.
Dave I will always remember your smile, it could light up a room. Your heart was filled with so much LOVE that your love could fill up the ocean. Meeting you in the canteen so many years ago has truly changed me for the better. Over the years we have grown so close you were always there for me when I needed you. You would always tell me you looked forward to my Christmas cards of my kids and even loved when they came in to visit. You were like an uncle to them. You never let me down. Even when things were tough you always saw the bright side. I miss you so much and wish I could have been there to say good bye. But I know you are home with the LORD and you are going to shine down on all of us watching over us till we meet again. I LOVE YOU DAVE and MISS YOU SO MUCH. . . Emily Meyer
