A graveside service is planned for 2 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 4, in Parks Cemetery, Bourbon, with Pastor Larry Goss of the Bourbon Bible Church officiating.
The family asks that any memorial contributions you may wish to make be sent to the family or the funeral home so they may direct the donations to charities that were important to David.
