David Gayle Combs

David Gayle Combs left this earth to be with the Lord, family and friends, on August 30, 2012 at the age of 76. He was born on February 15, 1936 in Duke, Oklahoma to Eugene Wayne and Sylvia Mae Combs. He married his sweetheart Londa Hankins of Fort Worth, Texas on December 22, 1953. He then went on to proudly serve our country in the US Air Force as a bombardier in the B-36 Bomber. After four years in the military, he found his career occupation as a welder in the Boilermaker's Union. Dave had a love for horses; he not only rode and roped but also started a small business raising prized racehorses. The flying bug never left, as he owned several small personal aircraft over the years. Also, you could catch him gearing up for a hunting or fishing trip or a round of golf. In 1991, he discovered Moses Lake, Washington and decided this would be where he and Londa would retire which they did in 1995. Husband, father, grandpa, uncle, son, and friend; Dave or as family called him, Gayle, was special to each and every one of us; his fun-loving personality lit up the room and he will be dearly missed and fondly remembered.
