David was born in Chatham, and raised in Wallaceburg Ontario. Like many families he worked At THE Glass Company. Libby / Dominion Glass for 40 years, until his closure in 1998.  Dave enjoyed the factory very much and made many longtime friends.  His next job/joy was Trucking. Loved, loved , loved that job and the people he  worked with. Originally Dave did long haul trucking of which he enjoyed travelling and  seeing the country, delivering throughout Canada,  USA and Mexico. His memory of taking  truckloads of water to the New York City 911 September 11 Emergency was something he was proud to contribute to. The past 15 years prior to retiring in 2020 was spent transport driving for Chatham's One World Logistics. Home every day appealed more to Dave and Jeanine.  Dave enjoyed the guys and the gals  he worked with immensely, and kept in touch with many recently in his retirement.

David and Jeanine were married in 1998 just as Libby Glass had decided to move to Mexico. Married in February on purpose...so they could go someplace warm  every winter...and they did. They enjoyed getaways to Las Vegas, Cruises to Hawaii and  the Carribean, Mexico, Jamaica and even to see and tour Elvis' Memphis mansion.  This year 2025 they had a trip planned to the Dominican Republic. Planned and paid for last fall...David became ill at Chrismas due to an unexplained spleen issue. He went for tests upon tests..poked and prodded, fevers and chills . This 330 lb man lost weight rapidly and was just too weak to enjoy life. He was anxious but made comfortable, once the decision was made to move him to Chatham Hospice. 

What a wonderful,  caring place we have in Chatham Ontario. Close family allowed to visit and spend time with him . This was both comforting to him and to all who came. Even Rosie , David's Boxer dog was even allowed a visit.  David is at peace now and so is the family.

Donations to the Chatham Hospice with reference to David Foulon are thankfully encouraged by the family.....to support their Comfort Care programs.

Cremation has taken place, and he will be resting peacefully, in Maple Leaf Cemetery, Chatham Ontario. 

Refreshments, reflection  and conversations are being planned for June 8^th.  A graveside internment will held at a later date for family to gather.  Memorial tributes appreciated and can be left online at The Hinnegan Funeral home site for the family and friends to share their thoughts and Remembrances of David. 

Bye Dave...We Love You..

See you on the other side.
