David Duncan Daniel, Sr.

of Little Rock, AR

February 16, 1970 - January 14, 2021

It is with great sadness that the family of David Duncan Daniel announces that he entered into his eternal rest on January 14, 2021. David was born on February 16, 1970, in Little Rock, Arkansas. He graduated from Catholic High School and attended the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville.

Anyone who knew David instantly loved him. An incredibly kind and generous soul, David was known for his tender heart and protective nature. He knew no stranger and had a special way of making everyone he met feel valued. David cherished his family and friends above all else. He was an avid fan of Arkansas football, loved the outdoors, and hiking with his sons. His sweet disposition, intelligence, and humor were one of a kind.

David is survived by his three sons, David Daniel, Jr., Austin Daniel, and Jackson Daniel; his mother, Mary Duncan Schuping and husband Jim; his father, Charles Daniel, Jr., and wife, Rita; as well as his siblings, Charles Daniel, III (Terri), Mary Elizabeth Harvey, and Kathleen Wilkins (Daniel), his special love, Susan Busby-Lively, and many more family members and friends. David is preceded in death by his grandparents, Horace and Mary Duncan and Charles Sr. and Lolita Daniel.

David is at peace and, in his honor, we will continue our love for each other. Due to Covid-19, we will have a Celebration of Life service to be announced at a later date. Should you wish to make a donation in David's honor, please consider making a contribution to the Wolfe Street Foundation at: www.wolfestreet.org., 1015 Louisiana St., P.O. Box 3708, Little Rock, AR 72202

I just want to send my personal condolences to the entire family.
When I think of my brother in law David, I remember a raucous hotel room in LIttle Rock with the boys flying on his knees and laughter echoing through the hallway. He always enjoyed being with the kids.
He also looked out for us too. I don’t know how many times I spoke to him about mortgage deals and home buying. Not too long ago he talked me out of a terrible refinance deal and I am thankful he did.
He really made me feel welcomed in the family and we will miss him terribly.

I met David through my son. DJ and Austin attended school together from Our Lady of the Holy Souls to graduation from Pulaski Academy. David was absolutely a kind soul. All too often they are the ones God calls home way too soon. My deepest sympathies to the entire Daniels family. David's light continues on through his children and family. God Bless.

I am more saddened than words can express by David’s passing. I will miss the long conversations about spiritual issues. The talks we had about our lives and our families. My life is richer having known David. He was a friend that I trust it. I am continually praying for Susan and all the boys. Love and blessings!

My precious brother,
The pain of losing you is like nothing I’ve ever known. I feel like there is a piece of my heart missing and I know that I will always feel this way. One thing I know for sure is that I was so incredibly blessed to have had you as my brother in this life here on earth. You were always my protector and my encourager (and E’s) in so many different ways from the very beginning. I have always loved you so very much and I always will!! The pain of losing you is beyond awful but I am grateful to have been blessed with such a precious brother that I loved so much that it hurts this incredibly bad to lose you. I will always cherish all of the beautiful memories I have of you in my heart!! I will not say goodbye because I know that this is not goodbye.. I know that we will all be together again one day in a place where there is no pain or suffering. Until then, my sweet David, i’ll just keep on loving you!!

David and I were in the Class of 88 at Catholic High. He was one of the guys in the class that everyone liked. After graduation, we would go years without seeing each other but whenever we happened to meet it was always like we picked up a conversation we had just had the day before. I was shocked to hear of his passing and wish his family and loved ones my most heartfelt sympathy and prayers.
