Locust Gap - David M. Mace, 59, passed away Monday, September 11, 2017 at Geisinger-Shamokin Area Community Hospital.

Born in Derby, CT on July 18, 1958 he was the son of the late Richard and Loretta (Zubritski) Mace.

David was a 1977 graduate of Mount Carmel Area High School and was employed as a construction worker for various pipeline employers.

He was an avid outdoorsman who loved fishing, searching for arrowheads and spending any time he could in the outdoors. David was wicked smart, kind to a fault, and will be missed by anyone who was lucky enough to have known him.  He was the kind of guy who would give you the shirt off his back and ask for nothing in return.

Survivors include a daughter, Cassandra M. Mace and her significant other, Robert Klingler of Atlas; a sister, Laura Mentch and her husband Jarrod of Danville; two brothers, Sean Mace and his wife Deb of Delaware; and Brian Mace of Pingueral, Chile; three nephews, Brian Mace Jr. and his wife Christy of Philadelphia; Kyle Mace and Andrew Mace both of Dover, Delaware; three nieces, Shannon Mace and her husband, James and Lauren Mace and her fiancé Drew Ferry all of Philadelphia and Ella Mentch of Danville as well as several cousins.  In addition to his parents he was preceded in death by a brother, Richard Mace Jr. on October 28, 2009.
