David Rea passed away on June 17, 2022 at home in his sleep.  He is preceded in death by his parents Frances Rea, his mother, and Edward Rea, his father; his stepson Grady Jackson, his aunt Ann and his cousin Stacy McEwen.  He is survived by his wife, Michelle Rea, his daughter Katelyn Rea, his step children, Zach Ryan, Mathew Rawson, Courtney Jackson, Grace Jackson, Hannah Jackson; his uncle Tyke (Ann), and his uncle John (Aunt Kay), and his cousins.  David worked at LASCO Fire Protection for fifteen years.  He was married to Michelle Rea for nineteen years.  He loved music, fishing, cooking, and his family.  He was the kindest and the most loyal guy you could ever meet and once you met him you would never forget him.  He will be missed by many, but never forgotten.

Note:  This obituary was lovingly written as a tribute to her dad by Katelyn Rea, David's 11 year old daughter.
