Obituary For David P. Escobar Sr.
David P. Escobar Sr., 54, of East Providence, RI, passed away unexpectedly on Monday, May 13, 2024 with his loving family by his side. The son of Diamantina (Souza) and the late Jose P. Escobar and the beloved husband of Melissa (Costa) Escobar for the better of 36 years. David was a proud Townie and lifelong resident of East Providence.
David took pride in his work and providing for his family. He was very involved in the Local 330 Brotherhood Carpenters Union, currently employed by Century Drywall. David couldn’t sit still for very long and was always looking for his next project. He could fix anything and everything and was proud of the tool collection he was able to accumulate over the years. In his leisure time, David loved to ride his Harley and spend time with his family and friends. He really loved people with everything he had and was the first to extend help to those in need. He was the walking definition of generous, caring, and genuine – he literally gave his shirt off his back to someone in need. David also made himself available as a mentor to those struggling with substance abuse. Above all else, David loved his family and absolutely adored his grandchildren, nothing made him more proud.
In addition to his beloved wife, Melissa, and his mother, Diamantina, David is survived by his three children. His daughters, Ashley Bradley and her husband Christopher of Cranston, RI, Allyson Hall and her husband James of East Providence, and his son, David Escobar Jr. and his partner, Alexis DelRosso of East Providence; his brother, Arlindo Escobar of East Providence; and his six grandchildren, Gianna Escobar, Myles Hall, Brooklynn Bradley, Izabella Bradley, Leo Hall – aka David Escobar Jr.-Jr., and Scarlett Hall. And his faithful Pitbull Busta.
Arrangements are with Family’s Choice Cremation, 8 Schoolhouse Rd. Warren, RI 02885. A Celebration of His Life will be held on Monday, May 20, 2024 at 6PM in the Restoration Church of RI, 244 Lexington Ave. North Providence, RI 02904.
