After obtaining his MBA, Davids career path took him into sales in the fashion/fabrics area of DuPont. David spent the second half of his career as an account executive with Herbert A Watts in Etobicoke, ON. David was a loving father and husband with a passion for baseball. He spent many years involved with the Bloordale Baseball League as first a coach to his daughters, then convenor, umpire and President of the league.

David always brought smiles and laughter with him wherever he went. May he rest in peace.
