David Brian Kessler Jr. known to us all as Davey, passed away on May 21, 2007.
Davey was born to Dave and Virginia Kessler on Jan. 23, 1980, in Everett, Wash. Davey grew up in the city of Marysville, Wash., with his little sister, Jessica, by his side. Davey graduated in 1998 from Marysville-Pilchuck High School.
In 2003, Davey maried the love of his life, Angie, with whom he has two children, Cody (10) and Mischa (3). The role of a loving husband and doting father is where Davey found his joy in life. Davey enjoyed playing, watching or reading about football almost as much as he enjoyed his games of Xbox with Cody.
Another interest close to his heart was his Bobby Flay cookbook, which he used to prepare dinners for his family. He also enjoyed spending time at his familys property in Lake Cushman, where they boated, golfed and fished.
Davey leaves behind his wife, Angie; children, Cody and Mischa; parents, Dave and Virginia Kessler; sister, Jessica Kessler; nephew, Michael (2); grandmother, Jean Staffenhagen and husband, Don, of Omak, Wash.; grandfather, Art Kessler and wife, Nona; in-laws, Perry and Sue Erichsen; along with numerous aunts, uncles, cousins and many friends.
As a son, husband and father, Davey lived his life with a huge heart and deep family values. Davey was a man so many loved- and always will.
