David Wayne Hampton
David Wayne Hampton, 60, of Claysville, died unexpectedly Sunday, March 24, 2019, in his home, following heart surgery.
He was born August 26, 1958, in Washington, a son of the late William and Joyce Houston Hampton.
He was a graduate of Washington High School.
Dave proudly served in the U.S. Army in the 159th Medical Detachment.
Mr. Hampton worked for 11 years as a chef for Strabane Trails.
His love for his family and friends was overwhelming, and he had a laugh that was so contagious, everyone loved to join in.
He was a person who never met a stranger, and everyone who met him loved him and he loved them equally in return. He will be missed by so many.
David enjoyed hunting, gardening and the Three Stooges.
Dave’s favorite thing to do on Mondays was watch World Wrestling Federation with his fur-baby, his best boy Luca. They had the kind of loving bond a person feels forever.
On October 23, 1999, he married Kathy Anderson, who survives.
Also surviving are two sons, Tony (Rachel) Coffield of Washington and Jason (Jen) Taylor of Washington; two daughters, Shannon (Tim) Carty of State College and Jamie Bard of Long Beach, Calif.; a brother, Dale (Cindy) Hampton of Washington; two sisters, Susan (Glen) Clutter of Amity and Sharon (Joe) Bilitski of Port Charlotte, Fla.; three grandchildren, Winifred, Isabella and Brandon; and a brother-in-law, David “Spark” (Darleen) Anderson.
