JD attended Glades Day School up to his senior year and was proud to have played on the State Championship teams of 2009 and 2010. After getting his GED, he attended Wyotech in Daytona Beach, Florida where he earned a degree as a marine mechanic.
JD loved to fish, hunt, and almost any outdoor activity, especially near beaches. He carried his rod and reel with him and was known to stop anywhere that looked like a good fishing spot to see what he could catch. He would take a picture and then release the bass or give his catch to someone who wanted it to eat. It is believed that he grew to love fishing when he was a little boy while spending time with his late Grandfather Bert in the Keys.
He was a member of the First United Methodist Church in Clewiston, Florida, but wanted to be baptized by immersion. He was baptized at the First Baptist Church of Lake Placid on July 19, 2015, a comfort to his family.
JD could light up a room with his funny stories and beaming smile. He spent his last days working at a job he loved as a journeyman electrician with Heatsinc. JD loved his family and had many friends and was a good friend to many. He will be missed by all who knew him.
