David G. LaPiana, 46, of Phoenixville, PA, passed away unexpectedly on April 14, 2021. Born in Syracuse, he was the son of the late John C. LaPiana and Carol A. (Spencer) LaPiana Porceng.

A graduate of Drexel University, David enjoyed visiting Hilton Head, NC and deep-sea fishing. It was an early family vacation spot that stuck with him into adulthood. After losing his father at a young age, he was introduced to Camp Good Days and Special Times in Syracuse, New York. He would go on to volunteer for them to bond with children that experienced similar loss. He also had a love for rescuing Golden Retrievers. As an adult he adopted 4 Golden Retrievers from the Delaware Valley Golden Retriever Rescue, which he referred to as his fur babies. David's sense of humor was legendary.

He will be sorely missed by his siblings: Julie LaPiana Evarts, wife of Rob of Lancaster, Jeffrey LaPiana, husband of Karen of Charlotte, NC, Mark LaPiana, husband of Alesha also of Charlotte, NC, his best friend, Randy Haldeman of Phoenixville, his nieces and nephews who affectionately called him "Uncle Doo": Sarah, Mac, Emma, Tessa, Jennifer, Krysten (Jonny), Anthony, Isabella, Anne Elizabeth, and Jack and his Golden Retriever, Gina. He was preceded in passing by his parents, step father, J. Richard Porceng and rescued fur babies: Bo, Luke and Bear.

Services will be private and at the convenience of the family. Memorial contributions may be made to the Delaware Valley Golden Retriever Rescue
