David and Irene fell deeply in love after a fateful mosquito bite brought them together. Over a span of 62 years, they embarked on a life of love, kindness and meaningful memories with their family. They both had teaching backgrounds, a calling to help others and a shared passion for music that remained strong even through ill health.

This is a love story that lasted a lifetime. The couple passed away within 2 weeks of each other from Covid-19.

We hear all about their story from their grandson, David Jr., who is inspired by his grandparents' love story and their steadfast commitment to service.
