David Alan McEvoy was born on October 7, 1952 in Council Bluffs Iowa to Patricia Ann (Stapleton) McEvoy and Daniel Francis McEvoy. David would follow his mother everywhere so much so that his younger sister Barbara nicknamed him “the shadow”.
David had an intellectual disability but that did not stop him. He was able to put together puzzles with ease, and he learned to ride a bicycle by age 4. As soon as he was placed in the water, he started swimming without having any lessons. Throughout his life, he continued to find joy in swimming, doing puzzles with his sister, riding in cars, and eating. David loved to eat! He will always be remembered for the sweet and happy person he always was. He was innocent, and fearless.
David was preceded in death by his parents Daniel and Patricia McEvoy. He is survived by his sister, Barbara McEvoy; aunt Donna Stapleton; uncle Dean Stapleton; and many cousins.
