David Michael Falke, 73, passed away on Wednesday, July 22, 2026, at his residence. David was born on June 6, 1953, to the late Jospeh and Helen (Morrison) Falke in Lager, West Virginia.
David honorably served his country in the United States Marine Corps and later devoted many years to a distinguished career with PPG, where his hard work and commitment were deeply valued.
He married his beloved wife, Rose (Norris) Falke, with whom he shared love, devotion, and countless treasured memories with.
Throughout David’s life, he found his greatest happiness in the simple things he loved most. Whether he was hunting in the woods, casting a line on a quiet day of fishing, or taking to the open road on his motorcycle, he embraced every opportunity to enjoy the outdoors and the freedom it brought. He also spent countless hours in his garage, where he was always tinkering, fixing, or working on a new project with pride and skill.
Above all, he treasured the time he spent with his family and friends. Sharing stories, laughter, and making lasting memories with his loved ones brought him his greatest joy and will remain a cherished part of the legacy he leaves behind.
Left to cherish David’s memory are his beloved wife, Rose; his children, Charlene, Darlena, and David; his stepchildren, Penny, Christy, Miranda (Robbie), and Kylie; his sister, Shelia (Marty); and numerous grandchildren, nieces, and nephews.
David was preceded in death by his parents, Joseph and Helen; and his brothers, Joseph and Curtis.
