Born into the loving arms of Junior and Excelle Talton, David quickly grew into a man of strong personal faith. His early years were shaped by the values of love and community, which he upheld throughout his life. David was a cherished husband to the late Patricia S.

A devout Christian, David was a faithful member of Orr Street Baptist Church for over half a century. His dedication to his faith was evident in his constant efforts to spread the gospel and live by its teachings. His enthusiasm for Alabama football was infectious, and he could often be found cheering on his favorite team, surrounded by friends and family.
An avid fisherman, David found peace and solace in the quiet moments by the water. His love for the outdoors was a source of joy and relaxation, and it provided him with countless cherished memories.
David's life was a journey marked by courage and faith, from his personal endeavors to the strength he displayed in many times of adversity. His friendly demeanor made him a beloved figure of many, where he was known for his sense of humor and love of others.
