David Roastingear was born on April 2, 1971, to Corena and Harold Roastingear in Tahlequah, OK. He graduated from Sequoyah high school. David was a Jack of all trades. After leaving high school, he had two daughters, Amber and Cory, along with many grandchildren and great-grandkids. David would always ask, “what’s cooking?” or “where’s the fry bread and beans?” At times you would find him in his truck listening to George Strait or Jon Pardi. There wouldn’t be enough time in the world to describe David. He went by many names like Bionic man, Olympian, Hulk, Superman, Hero, Brother, Uncle, Dad, and Son, but his favorite was DODA.
David was a humble, hardworking, supportive, giving, and loving dad. He meant the world and more to his family.
David was preceded in death by his wife, Jewel Roastingear, Grandson Miciah, his parents, brother John Roastingear, sisters Tammy and Karen Roastingear, and brother-in-law Phillip Mathews.
David is survived by daughters Corena Kay Roastingear and Amber (Roastingear) Fancher, brother James Roastingear of Brushy, OK., sister Corena Mathews of Nicut, OK., grandchildren Summer Dawn, McKaila Nichelle, Jaydan Kade, Tatum Dean, and great-grandchildren Novianna, Genisis, and Mateo’ Lundy.
