Diamond
November 11, 1932 – October 15, 2018
St. George, Utah – David Avroum Diamond, age 85, passed away on October 15, 2018. He was born on November 11, 1932 in San Francisco, CA to Jacob and Martha (Moore) Diamond and was the youngest of six children. David married Joan Hackett, the love of his life, on November 3, 1954 and together they raised six children.
Because of his patriotism, it was fitting that David was born on Veterans Day.

After retiring from the Air Force, he worked for the City of Las Vegas for 15 years. David was very involved in the Boy Scouts of America and enjoyed camping and fishing and spending time with his family. David loved taking his wife to Bingo, bragging about his family, and watching his favorite sports teams play. Join his family in celebrating his life by playing a game of Bingo and cheering on his Dodgers!
David is survived by his beloved wife of 62 years, Joan; his five children: Debbie (Bobby) LaRocca, Richard (Cheri) Diamond, Janet Diamond, Rob (Candy) Diamond, and David (Nancy) Diamond; 19 grandchildren; 17 great-grandchildren; and 4 great-great-grandchildren. David was preceded in death by his daughter, Karen; two grandchildren: Pam and David; his parents; and siblings.
