David Lee Peterman
David Lee Peterman, 68, of Grand Prairie, Texas passed away on May 2, 2022. David was born on July 27, 1953 in Dallas, Texas to Edwin Lee and Betty Peterman. After graduation from Grand Prairie High School, he married and had 2 children. He enjoyed teaching his kids about hunting and fishing but most of all enjoyed coaching them in sports.  David retired from the Grand Prairie Fire Department in 2004 after 25 years of service achieving the rank of lieutenant.  While most of those years were at a Fire Station, David spent several years as an arson investigator, and worked as part of the gang task force in the early 1990s. In 2011 David married Brenda Lewis.   They spent many years making memories, enjoying their grandkids and mostly spoiling their dog, Bella.  If you saw David driving early in the morning you can bet he was taking Bella for a ride to pick up her happy meal, or was headed to Theos Cafe for a meal and conversation. David  was preceded in death by his parents and granddaughter Riley Peterman. He is survived by his wife Brenda, brother Eddie Peterman and his wife DaNita, sister Carol Buck, children Lisa Wood and husband Jason, Jeffrey Peterman and wife Amanda, Grandchildren Bailey Peterman, Devin Wood, Madison Abrahams and husband Zach,  Tyler Wood and Casey Peterman, and great-grandsons Elian and Ellic Abrahams as well as numerous extended family members and friends. A memorial service is scheduled for 11am on Saturday May 14th at First Baptist Church Grand Prairie.

  1. I will always cherish the memories of going out to Mamaws house and shooting off fireworks with Uncle Dad every summer. He was always a joy to be around and will be truly missed. Love you Uncle David. God has you in good hands now.

  2. David was a nice man and good friend and neighbor. Always had a smile and friendly conversation for anyone he met. He will be missed by all those who knew him.

  3. David and I grew up as good friends. We ran around our neighborhood and just enjoyed hanging and things that boys like. Thankfully, I inadvertently met him about four years ago, while having coffee and a Waffle House breakfast in Grand Prairie. I’m confident that David and I will have glorious reunion in Heaven.

  4. We love you Papa! Can’t wait to see you again. Blessed to be given the same middle name as you and now my son shares it with us as well. Will forever hold our memories we’ve shared close to my heart. 💙

  5. I knew David at FBC, Adams and GPHS. We both played alto saxophone, and he was just a fun guy to be around. Wish we could have caught up with one another at one of our reunions. Pray God gives you peace and comfort at this difficult time.

  6. Brenda, so sorry for your loss. Know I am thinking of you today and the difficult days ahead.

  7. To Jeff, Lisa, and family, we are so very sorry to hear of Uncle David’s passing. We pray that you all find peace in knowing that he is healed. May your memories always bring smiles to you faces and fill your hearts with love. We are praying for God’s comfort and understanding. If we can ever do anything, we are always here. Big hugs and love.
