A celebration of 'Life' is planned for Chalmer David 'Dave' McCollum who passed away unexpectedly April 17, 2012, in Sarasota, Florida. He was born to the late Charles Earl and Mildred Leona Richwine McCollum and was a member of the former Evangelical United Brethern Church and attended the United Methodist Church.
He leaves to cherish his memory his loving wife of 42 years, Christine Fry McCollum; his children, Chad David and Colleen McCollum of Delaware, Chasie Lynn and Rick Haupt of Florida, and grandchildren, Max David McCollum, Pippa Adelie and Zoe Hadley Haupt; brother, Charles 'Chuck' McCollum, Patterson Twp.; sisters, Charlotte and Phil Lindeman, Beaver Falls, and Charmaine and James Meehan, Ellwood City, and seven nieces and nephews, and eight great nieces and nephews. He treasured and loved his family above all else and enjoyed spending his life with them. He also leaves his mother-in-law, Alice Fry; sisters-in-law, Jo Anne and John Slaby and Betsy and Curt Lohler, and nieces and nephews.
Chalmer was preceded in death by his father-in-law, Howard Fry.
He was a graduate of Patterson Twp. School, Beaver Falls High School and Robert Morris College, served in the National Guard and worked at the former Babock & Wilcox and retired from Duquesne Light after 30 plus years of service.
Chalmer will always be remembered for his wonderful sense of humor and loving and caring of others. He will be dearly missed by all who loved and knew him!
We invite those who loved and knew him to celebrate his 'Life' on June 24, 2012, at 3 p.m. at Concord United Methodist Church, Route 588, North Sewickley Twp.
