David Harold London, 83, of Liberty, Missouri passed away peacefully on August 11, 2025, under Hospice care, surrounded by his family after a long battle with Parkinson’s. He was born in Port Huron, Michigan, on August 10, 1942, to Bill and Irene London. He was one of ten children, with three boys and seven girls. David married the love of his life, Linda Lee Alford, on November 18, 1961. Together they had three children, Mitchell, Kevin, and Renee.
David worked for many years for Ford Motor Company before retiring in 1998. He was a member of the UAW Local 249. He was a proud member of Masonic Lodge – Out Washington Lodge #614. He served with joy for the Ararat Shriners as part of the director’s staff for several years. David & Linda loved to travel and spent many winters in Arizona in their travel RV. Most of all David loved people and spending time with family and friends. He was always ready to make you laugh or have a game of cards.
David is preceded in death by his parents, Bill and Irene, and all but one of his siblings.
