BASDEN-SMITH, David Lorenzo. At home in St. Catharines on Sunday January 28, 2024 in his 30th year.
David is the cherished son David Sr. (Noreen) and the late Batrina Basden-Smith. Lovingly remembered by his siblings Myraka, Logan and Nolan (Sarah). Proud father of Eli and Lena. Fondly remembered by his nieces and nephews Kingston, Declan, Harper, Jensen, Lennon and Owen.
David had a love for all things gold, a heart of gold and grills to match! A tough exterior, but just like pure gold, he was soft on the inside; a true gentle giant! David was a solid person who would have done anything for the ones he loved. An animal lover, a Scarface fanatic and he had a strong passion for rap music. Although his path was never easy, he walked it with his head held high and we know this new path home will be no different. In lieu of flowers in kind donations to benefit his children Eli and Lena would be appreciated (cheques to payable to Shannon McClung).
A Celebration of Life will be held at the Royal Canadian Legion Hall, Dunnville on Sunday February 4, 2024 friends are welcome to drop in between 1:00 to 4:00 pm. Online condolences jwhartfuneralhome.com
