David G. Boswell Jr.'s Obituary
David G. Boswell, Jr. went home to the Lord on Sunday February 5th, 2023 at 91 years old. He had been a resident of the Fort Myers area since 1969.
David was a skilled carpenter and woodworker, building sheds for his property. He put his more intricate skills to use by making clocks, fountain pens, and even backscratchers to donate for church fundraisers. He enjoyed cooking for his family and was a dedicated father. David was astoundingly proud of his 20 years of military service to the United States Air Force. He enjoyed hunting, fishing, and golfing.
David was preceded in passing by his wife of 59 years, Mary; and his son in law Don Westberry.
He leaves behind to cherish his memory his children Pamela Westberry, Denise Boswell, David G. Boswell III (Marsha), Cynthia Boswell, and Margaret Gaunt (Donald); six grandchildren; eleven great grandchildren; and his beloved squirrel dog Anna, named after his grandmother.
A funeral service officiated by Pastors West Wickard and Pat Lurch will be held on Saturday February 11th, 2023 at 10:00AM at Fort Myers Memorial Gardens Funeral Home, with entombment to follow.
The family asks that in lieu of flowers, donations are made to Hope Hospice in light of the wonderful care they provide.
