currently serving on the Deacon Board and with the Praise Band for the past
11 years.

He was employed by Federal Express for the past 23 years and was known to
many of his customers as “Whistling Dave.”

school and married on June 4, 1970, and their two children, Matt Piatt and
Amy Piatt, both of Williamstown.
