Born March 23, 1951 in Murray, Utah, to Paul Palmer Bennion and Ardonna Ferguson Bennion. David departed this life on Saturday, May 23, 2015 at Danville Services of Riverton, Utah, his home for the past 27 years.
David was not sent into this world to be tested, but to teach us compassion and service. He had an outgoing personality and made friends everywhere he went. David loved people, 18-wheel trucks, music, and had a passion for flashlights and batteries! He was a loving son, brother and uncle. David will always hold a presence in the hearts of those who knew him. He showed unconditional love to all.
David is survived by his mother, Ardonna Bennion of Draper, UT, four sisters, Suzanne (Phil) James of Riverton, UT; Nancy Sallustio of Folsom, CA; Sherrie (Bill) Glodowski of Sandy, UT; MaryAnn (Steve) Pollock of Riverton, UT; and two brothers, Brent (Sharene) Bennion of Sandy, UT and Thomas (Linda) Bennion of Hope Mills, NC. David is also survived by many loving nieces and nephews. David was preceded in death by his father, Paul Bennion.
