Pembroke – David O’Quinn DuBose, Jr. age 71, passed away Monday, March 16, 2020 at St. Joseph’s Hospital.  Mr. DuBose was born Oct. 29, 1948 in Savannah to the late David O. DuBose Sr. and Blanche White DuBose.  His family moved to Pembroke in 1963 and Pembroke is where he lived for the remainder of his life.  In 1969 he married his soulmate, the love of his life, Barbara Shuman.  Mr. DuBose was a 1967 graduate of Bryan County High School, attended South Georgia Tech and was a graduate of Savannah Area Technical School in 1969.  Mr. DuBose retired with 42 years of service with the Electrical and Instrument Department of Union Camp/International Paper.

Mr. David was very involved in both his community and church.  He was a past board member of Hendrix Park, a baseball coach at Hendrix Park and was one of the first football coaches for recreation football in Pembroke. He was a member of the BCHS Boosters and was a Boy Scout Leader for Troop 357.   He was a member of Dowd Hunting Club, a volunteer for the Bryan County 4-H Club and Project Safe (Shotgun), and served as the official “Santa” for the City of Pembroke, 4-H Club and community for over 15 years.  Mr. David was a long-time member and deacon of Beulah Baptist Church and also was a member of the Higher Call Builders Group.

David was a loving and truly dedicated husband, father and papa.  Whatever activities his wife, children and grandchildren participated in, he was there to provide necessary labor and support.  Football was his passion and NASCAR came right behind. He loved gardening, riding his tractor, deer hunting, westerns and Elvis movies.   He was also a good cook and enjoyed grilling.  In addition to his parents, Mr. David was preceded in death by his sister, Beth DuBose Breaux
