David Burgoyne

Carmel - David Albert Burgoyne passed peacefully on January 1, 2024. He was born July 16, 1953 in Hartford, Connecticut, to Albert Burgoyne and Virginia Scarpello. After graduating from Dover Foxcroft Academy in 1971, David served as a Marine for four years.

In 1975, David married Ramona Adams and together they proudly raised three children - David, Kain and Darcie. In 2018, David was reunited with his eldest child, Mandy, and met her family. David is survived by his wife, four children, ten grandchildren, two great grandchildren, and two sisters.

David was hard-working, in earthwork construction, as a woodsman, and in pole line construction, starting his own pole line business in the early 1990’s. He and Ramona cleared land and with the help of friends and family built a house from David’s own plans. David was intelligent and skilled and was always busying himself with mechanics, woodworking, or construction. He enjoyed walks in the woods, watching and feeding birds, and took pride in having a beautiful, tidy lawn.

Please join his family to celebrate his life, share conversation and refreshments from 5:00-7:00 p.m., Tuesday, January 16, 2024 at the Family Reception Center of Brookings-Smith, 163 Center Street, Bangor.
