David Michael Nelson, age 67, of Georgetown TX passed away on May 12, 2024 at his home surrounded by his family. David was born in Winston-Salem, NC and graduated from North Forsyth High School and the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.

David was preceeded in death by his grandparents Earlie V. and Elsie Smith Nelson and Frank and Stella Webster, as well as his mother Kit Nelson Binkley and his two younger brothers Darrell and Todd Nelson.

Surviving to cherish his memory is the love of his life, his wife Judy, and his father Jack Nelson (Becky) and his brother Shane Beck of Winston-Salem, NC.  His children Alicia Jones and William Jackson (Tasha) and granddaughters Cali and Cady held a special place in his heart and remember him for the wonderful memories and mentoring.  David is also survived by his mother-in-law Barbara Morrison, sister and brother-in-law JoAnn and Greg Testerman, sister-in-law Kathy Tolliver and very special friends David and Teresa Reavis of Winston-Salem, NC, along with many nieces and nephews.

After college graduation David began his long career with RJ Reynolds Tobacco Company as a show car driver taking him all over the United States.  His career progressed into sales with RJR/British American Tobacco ultimately taking him to Georgetown as key account manager for Walmart and Costco where he met his bride, Judy.

David was not an "all work and no play" kind of guy.  He especially enjoyed photography, traveling, boating, fishing, golfing and cars, so driving high performance cars and instructing others on track was a real passion.  But David was happiest spending time with Judy and his family including his dogs Olive and Piper.  He will be dearly missed by all who loved him.

In memory of David Nelson, and in lieu of flowers, donations may be made to MD Anderson Cancer Center, P.O. Box 4486, Houston, TX 77210-4486 or MDAnderson.org/Gifts.
