___ PCN FLIGHT WEST is sponsored by the Pilot Communication Network and is a service of the PCN provided for the Delta Pilot Retired family of pilot groups. Flight West was started and is maintained to accomplish two main goals. After we become aware of a colleague who has Flown West, 1. We aim to produce a “timely” notice sent to our community that allows for support and interaction from our group toward the grieving family of our friend and colleague. 2. Then, we aim to “archive” that notice on our Flown West Blogspot as a lasting accessible place of Dignity and Honor of our colleague for family legacy and posterity. Contributor contact info is generally removed before posting (unless requested otherwise).

David Culpepper Obituary

Davis-Watkins Funeral Homes & Crematory - Fort Walton Beach

 

David Grady Culpepper, 88, of Santa Rosa Beach, FL, passed away peacefully on July 23, 2024. He was born on March 16, 1936, in Montgomery, AL, to the late William Rodgers Culpepper and Kathleen Ellington Culpepper. He is survived by his wife, Eveline; his sons, Mark and Walter Culpepper; Derek and Brent Iverson, and his wonderful grandchildren, Macy, Riley, Drexel, Elle, Erich, and Laney.

David was a proud veteran of the U.S. Air Force, where he served as a pilot. He had a passion for aviation and worked as a commercial pilot for 36 years with Delta Airlines. He also loved sailing, working in his garage, and tinkering with his glider planes. He enjoyed spending time with his family and friends, especially his grandchildren, who adored him. He had a great sense of humor and a witty personality. His favorite saying was "a wet bird never flies at night". If you know him, you know why he loved this saying.

A celebration of Dave's life will be held privately with his immediate family. If you would like to send flowers, please send to 301 Bay Circle Dr, Santa Rosa Beach, FL 32459. Dave will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him and he will be eternally remembered and loved.
