David Gilbert Weston passed peacefully into the presence of his precious Saviour on January 22, 2024 at the age of 67.
Dave was born June 27, 1956 to the late Gilbert and Delores Weston, the 1st of 4 children. From a young age he won the hearts of those around him with his quick smile and cheeky ways. He was an adored big brother to Sharon, Stephen and Debbie and was often the instigator for the mischief they got into.
With his quick wit, hearty laugh, eye twinkles and propensity for fun, Dave was a people person who was happiest when he was with those he loved. Whether chilling in the pool, attending a concert, sitting around a campfire, or playing games of any kind, Dave enjoyed life to the fullest and was happiest when he could joke around and make other people laugh. For a number of years he organized bus trips for seniors to Lake Ladore, Pennsylvania, which was a highlight in their year for so many people. The photos are proof of the fun antics everyone enjoyed on those trips.
One thing Dave didn’t mind doing solo was shopping. Not only was he searching for a good deal on his preferred clothing brands, but he spent a good amount of time pouring over greeting cards, choosing just the right one to meaningfully express his heart for the recipient, which we now treasure.
Dave enjoyed watching sports including baseball, football, hockey, NASCAR and golf, and watched in person as often as he could. He was a frequent fan at the Barrie Speedway. In his younger years Dave was a competitive champion in darts and billiards and took home bragging rights from family competitions in horseshoes and crokinole. No matter what sport or game Dave participated in, he excelled.
As we all do, Dave had times of turmoil and heartbreak in his life. He felt deeply the relationship rifts and struggles with loved ones. The lyrics of a Gaither song summarizes Dave’s journey: “…Sometimes it takes a mountain, sometimes a troubled sea, sometimes it takes a desert to get ahold of me…to trust You and believe.” Dave’s faith carried him through many difficulties, especially the last decade of his life. He was fully aware that God was taking care of him and rested securely in the goodness and care of His Heavenly Father. He knew that God would continue to lovingly care for him, no matter what the future held. This gave him great peace and the ability to find joy in the blessings of every day. His precious little dog Angel also brought Dave much comfort, strength and joy when times were tough.
Pre-deceased by his parents and sister Sharon, Dave is survived by daughters Shari Parsons (Janet) and Harley Brandon (Michael), son David Jeffrey (Merry-lyn) and granddaughters Hannah, Ava and Addie. Also left to grieve are his brother Stephen Weston (Sandra), sister Deborah Dearden (Jon), as well as several aunts and uncles, nieces and nephews, cousins and friends.
Dave’s family expresses sincere thanks to the wonderful staff at Roberta Place for their compassionate care for Dave the last few years.
Visitation will be held at 1:00 p.m. Saturday, January 27th at Hi-Way Pentecostal Church, 50 Anne Street North, Barrie. Celebration of Dave’s life will follow at 2:00 p.m. Please wear bright colours that Dave loved and in lieu of flowers, we invite you to gift some joy and laughter to the people you encounter today. If desired, donations may be made to Hi-Way Pentecostal Church Barrie or a charity of your choice.
Cremation has taken place. Interment will be scheduled for the family at a later date. Online condolences and memories may be left at www.steckleygooderham.com
