David Wayne Hampton

David Wayne Hampton, 60, of Claysville, died unexpectedly, on Sunday, March 24, 2019, in his home, following heart surgery. He was born on August 26, 1958, in Washington, a son of the late William and Joyce Houston Hampton. He was a graduate of Washington High School. Dave proudly served in the United States Army, in the 159th Medical Detachment. Mr. Hampton had worked for eleven years as a chef for Strabane Trails. His love for his family and friends was overwhelming, and he had a laugh that was so contagious, everyone loved to join in. A person who never met a stranger, everyone who met him loved him, and he loved them equally in return.  He will be missed by so many. David enjoyed hunting, gardening and the Three Stooges. Dave’s favorite thing to do on Mondays, was watch WWF with his fur-baby, his best boy “Luca”.  They had the kind of loving bond a person feels forever. On October 23, 1999, he married Kathy Anderson, who survives. Also surviving are two sons, Tony (Rachel) Coffield, of Washington, and Jason (Jen) Taylor, of Washington; two daughters, Shannon (Tim) Carty, of State College, PA, and Jamie Bard, of Long Beach, CA; a brother, Dale (Cindy) Hampton, of Washington; two sisters, Susan (Glen) Clutter, of Amity, and Sharon (Joe) Bilitski, of Port Charlotte, FL; three grandchildren, Winifred, Isabella and Brandon; and a brother-in-law, David “Spark” (Darleen) Anderson.
