David Eugene Mason

December 26, 1964 - November 10, 2021

With great sadness we announce the passing of our beloved family member David Eugene Mason. David passed away November 10th, 2021. David was born December 26th, 1964, to Donald Mason and Alma Lois Weatherford-Mason in Mesa Arizona where he continued to live throughout his life. David grew up with his mother, father, and six siblings James Allen, James Donald, Ricky, Kathy, Gail, and Tammy as well as a large extended family including cousins, aunts, and uncles. He was a daring young boy, always up for an adventure. He spent his time playing cowboys and Indians and cops and robbers with his siblings and cousins. At one point David jumped off a roof playing Tarzan. He was always trying to be a stuntman and always a cowboy at heart. As a teenager he loved cruising main street in Mesa and continued to be an adventurous and kind spirit. David grew up to be a very tall strong man with a gentle soul and heart loved by so many. He was a landscaper by trade taking immense pride in his work creating beautiful landscapes. His work can be seen and enjoyed at many homes and businesses across the East Valley. He enjoyed classic western movies and programs, good country music, and dancing and is remembered all dressed up in his slick cowboy attire. He was also known for his lovable stubbornness, great humor, big smile, and laughter by his family and friends. He could perform perfect impressions of movie and television stars to entertain a crowd and keep everyone laughing. David was a loving and selfless man who was happy as long as those who were around him were happy. David was a cherished uncle to thirty-one nieces and nephews. He selflessly helped to raise many of them, and to them he was a gentle and fun-loving giant and will be missed immensely. Today and every day on, our family will celebrate his life with deep appreciation to have had him in our lives and in our memories.
