In Memoriam
David P. Lancaster
We are saddened to inform you that David P. Lancaster '54, brother to Donald '53, also deceased, passed away on December 17, 2021.
"Life is Good. And if you knew Dad, you heard him make that comment often. Frequently that simple phrase lifted the spirits of family and friends. Dave had a larger-than-life personality. He and his family lived in the Denver area for most of their lives. Retirement was spent with Marty in Grand Junction, CO, for 21 years. He moved to Buckley, WA, the last two years to be near family. Dave worked in the packaging industry in the Denver area. He was truly a Titan of the industry and made friends and gained the respect of everyone he met. He was a mentor to many throughout his career. There are many who still do business like Dave because of what they learned from him. We always joked that Dad could sell ice to an Eskimo: he was the best at whatever he did. He would tell us, "If you are going to be one, be a good one". The life he provided for his family was like something from a movie. We enjoyed camping, boating/fishing, hunting, horses, and the list goes on. Most of all, he loved and provided for his family. Dad was a devout Catholic. Through his actions and words, he lived his faith, and he was an example to us all. He lived his life in service to others and gave freely and graciously of his time, talent, and treasure." View the full obituary.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Grand Valley Catholic Outreach.
We pray for David’s eternal rest and for God’s peace and ongoing consolation of his family and all those who loved him. May he rest in peace.
