David Andrade

David Andrade, 42, of Buena Park, California, passed away on August 7, 2026. He was born on January 6, 1984, in Gardena, California.More than anything, David will be remembered for the way he loved the people in his life. He was the friend who listened, the one who could always be counted on, and someone everyone wanted to be friends with. David was charismatic, warm, and genuine, with a personality that drew people to him. His quick sarcasm and contagious laughter could light up any room and create memories that will never be forgotten.

David loved celebrating life and making the most of every moment. He enjoyed traveling, going to concerts, listening to country music, and, of course, his mimosas. He had a love for good times, good music, and being surrounded by the people he loved.

Being a father was one of David’s greatest joys. His daughter, Alani, was one of the most important parts of his life. The love he had for her was undeniable, and the memories they shared will forever remain a part of his greatest legacy.

David is survived by his beloved daughter, Alani; his wife, Vanessa; his mother, Francine; his father, Virgilio; his stepfather, Joseluis; his brothers, Nathan and Jesus; and his sister, Monica. He also leaves behind many extended family members and friends who were blessed to know and love him.

Family and friends are invited to gather on Saturday, August 29, 2026, from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m., with a service to follow. A reception will be held at 4:00 p.m. to honor David the way he would have wanted: eat, tell a few stories, and cherish the time we were blessed to have him.

David’s life may have been far too short, but the love he gave and the joy he brought to others will last a lifetime. His laughter, his sarcasm, his charismatic spirit, and his ability to make people smile will be deeply missed.

Though he is no longer with us, David will live on in the hearts of his daughter, family, friends, and everyone fortunate enough to have known him.

Rest peacefully, David. Your laughter will echo in our hearts, your memories will never fade, and you will be forever loved.
