NEA/DL Capt. David C. Trauth

We remember Captain David Trauth...

we would like to share a happy time with Captain Trauth and his family. Son Jason writes that this picture was taken over Labor Day weekend in 2010. The picture is one of the family’s favorites as it shows Captain Trauth’s big smile! Captain Trauth fell into a coma in January 2012 from which he never recovered until his passing. In the picture is son Jason and Jason’s wife, their two boys and Captain Trauth’s caretaker. Captain Trauth was loved by a wonderful family!

Thank you to all.

NEA/DL Capt. David C. Trauth

December 20, 1933 ~ February 26, 2013

Our website has received notice of the passing of NEA/DL retired pilot Captain David C. Trauth, age 79. David Charles Trauth was raised in Maplewood NJ, born to parents David and Evelyn Oberg Trauth. Captain Trauth’s father, a judge in Maplewood, died in the August 1958 crash of a Northeast plane that left NYC bound for fog engulfed Nantucket Island. His mother Evelyn passed away in 1989. I believe he is survived by a brother Grant and a sister Holly. Captain Trauth hired on with Northeast 01-17-1966 and retired with Delta Air Lines, based BOS/DFW/MIA. For many years and after retirement, Captain Trauth had made his home in Texas.

Arrangements have not been advised yet but will be posted promptly when known. Personal condolences may be sent to the family c/o son Jason B. Trauth, 6917 SW 115th PL Unit G, Miami FL 33173 (305) 310-9298 jbtrauth@gmail.com

Thank you,
