David Woodrow Salmon, 65, of Spring Lake, NC, passed away at his home on August 20, 2019. David was born June 4, 1954 to Woodrow and Geraldine Salmon in Dunn, NC. His father, Woodrow and sister, Rachel Bain preceded him in death. David and his brother, Wayne joined forces in April, 1996 and opened W & D Electric Services. The brothers and their wives worked hard to build and maintain a solid business in their hometown. The business has been a success for many years and allowed David to meet and become friends with so many people in Spring Lake and surrounding communities. More importantly, he saw his employees as family and loved them all. When he wasn't working, he could most often be found at his favorite place, the "Pool House," surrounded by family, friends and his grandsons. He also enjoyed riding his golf cart at Lake Tillery where he was able to relax best. He would often trade in his golf cart for his Harley and head to Myrtle Beach for Bike Week. David was a Mason and a Shriner and took great pride in giving back to his community.
