David Paul VanOverbake, born on March 16, 1955 in Rochester, NY passed away peacefully at age 64, on November 18, 2019 with loved ones by his side.

Dave was predeceased by his father, Dr. Eugene VanOverbake and spouse, Barbara (Batz) VanOverbake.  He is survived by his partner, Suzie Holcombe; mother, Jane VanOverbake; daughter, Rebecca (Nicholas) Bryan; son, Christopher VanOverbake; stepsons, Daniel (Maggie) Batz and Sean (Christie) Katerle; brother, Jim (Elaine) VanOverbake; sister, Vickie (Jim) Meeks; nieces, nephews, and grandchildren.

Dave thoroughly loved time with his children and grandchildren, dancing, fishing, and sitting on his dock enjoying the surrounding wildlife. Dave lived life to the fullest:

“Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming 'Wow! What a Ride!' ”
