He truly can be described as a muscle car enthusiast and was a member of the Drag Racing Club: 518 No Stipz Street Racing.

David always enjoyed a good party surrounded by all his family and friends. He could always put a smile on anyone’s face with his jokes. David believed in working hard for things you want in life and instilled this in all of his children. He was the proud owner and operator of David Browe Paving, Inc.

In addition to his wife Janet, David is survived by his children, Jason (Marcee), Liza (Rob), Angeline (Mill) Keneston and David (Tara); his cherished grandchildren, Anthony, Morgan, Madison, Leah, Jamison, Juliana, Lindsay Ann, Drake and Dalton; his fur babies, Sophie and Sammy; siblings, Carol (David) King, Richard (Judith), Doris (Jim) Pullar, Vernon (Jim), William (Helena), Larry (Cathy), Donna, Margaret (Tom) Corellis, and Jon (Andrew); several nieces and nephews; motherin-law Joan Boule’; and brother and sister-in-law Robert (Celine) Boule’ and Cathy Boule’.
