David John Penney, 62, of North Andover, Massachusetts passed away unexpectedly on October 25th, 2022.

He was a kind and loving husband to his wife Helaine (Quigley) Penney of North Andover, as well as an amazing father to his children Justin Penney of Medford, Karisa Penney and Kayla Penney of South Boston.

David was born in Waltham, Massachusetts to Robert and Rosaline Penney and is survived by his dear siblings, Jay Penney, Scott Penney, Cheryl Smith, Michelle Wright, Simonne Colclough and Bobby Penney. David is also survived by many nieces and nephews.

David was most proud of being a father. He was his children's #1 fan, always putting them first and expressing his endless love for them. He loved cars, and created a career around his passion, working in the automotive industry for the past 30 years. He was quick-witted, always cracking jokes, and never failed to put a smile on the face of everyone he encountered. David will be missed dearly and will live forever in our hearts.
