In Celebration of

David Piatek

August 6, 1970 -  May 8, 2025

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of David Piatek, beloved husband, devoted father, cherished son and brother, loving uncle and great uncle, and dearly loved son-in-law and brother-in-law on May 8, 2025, at the young age of 54.

Born on August 6, 1970, David was known for his twinkling blue eyes, big heart and smile, quiet strength, and unwavering loyalty to those he loved. Throughout his life, he touched the hearts of many with his generosity, wisdom and sense of humor. He was always there to lend a helping hand, even before we realized we needed it. Whether through his work, friendships or family, David left a lasting impression on all who knew him.

David’s presence brought light and warmth into every room and his memory will continue to do so in the lives of those he leaves behind. He will be deeply missed by his family, friends and all who had the privilege of knowing him.

There will never be a replacement for David but we know the family will remember him with fond memories and stories that will bring smiles and laughter.

In Loving Memory of David.

I honor the memory of a truly remarkable man whose presence brought light, warmth, and joy to everyone who had the privilege of knowing him. David was a kind generous spirit that always made me laugh. David had a way of making people feel seen, heard, and valued. He was always ready with a smile, a kind word, or a helping hand. To say he will be missed is an understatement. David may no longer be with us in body, but his kindness, his love, his laugher and most importantly his legacy will live forever.
