Remembering David

A life held close in memory

David Noble Hughson IV (February 3, 1993 – June 12, 2021) is lovingly remembered as a devoted husband to Anna and a cherished father to his daughter, Cali. Born and raised in Canton, Ohio, David’s life centered on family and the bonds that brought joy to ordinary days. He is remembered by relatives and friends for his fun-loving spirit and the quiet ways he cared for those closest to him.

David was the son of David Hughson III and Lori Hughson III and grew up surrounded by a close-knit family that remained central throughout his life. He valued his role as a husband and father above all else; those who knew him speak of the tenderness he showed his daughter and the partnership he shared with Anna. He also carried a special place in the lives of his extended family, including grandparents, siblings, and many cousins who recall his presence at family gatherings and celebrations.

Friends and family remember David for his easy laugh, his willingness to be there when someone needed him, and the everyday moments — coaching little routines, sharing a meal, or simply spending time with loved ones — that spoke most clearly of his character. His passing left a deep vacuum for those who loved him, and his memory endures in the stories and gestures of those who carry him in their hearts.

David’s life, though cut short, had meaning in the relationships he built and the care he showed. He is survived by his wife Anna; his daughter, Cali; his parents David III and Lori Hughson III; siblings and many other family members who loved him. His family asked for privacy as they grieve and remember David’s life in the months after his death.

Those who wish to honor David’s memory are encouraged to celebrate the love he gave and the small, everyday kindnesses that defined him. He is remembered not for how he died but for who he was: a loving husband, a proud father, and a son and sibling dearly missed by his family and friends.
