Legacy

David was born in Voorhees, NJ on November 3, 1974 and grew up in the Catalina Hills development of Gloucester Township. He graduated from Triton High School and went on to receive a certification as an Emergency Medical Technician.

David was married to Hope (nee Murschell) on June 8, 2012.

David worked as an EMT for Gloucester County Emergency Medical Services.  He was passionate about his service to the county and the community as an EMT.  After nearly 5 years as a part time employee at GCEMS, he had the proudest moment of his career when he achieved full time status in April 2020.  His fellow employees were a second family to him.
