David was a lifelong resident of Choctaw county and was a pipefitter by trade. He married Vicki (Baze) Bell on Nov. 13, 1995 in Hugo. David enjoyed beekeeping and raising poultry, singing and playing his guitar. David loved his family and especially loved his grandbabies. He was always there for his kids’ sports activities and could be heard above the crowd, cheering them on. Any time he passed a mirror, he would stop and remark “That’s a good-looking man right there.” David will be missed by all who knew and loved him, and his passing has left a huge void in the lives of his family. David is survived by his wife, Vicki; son, Matthew Bell and wife of Hugo; daughters: Leta Abbott and husband of Hugo and Kristen Houchen and husband of Hugo; seven grandchildren; brother, James Bell of Hugo; sister, Wyona Webb of Sapulpa, Okla., and a sister-in-law, along with a host of other family, friends and loved ones.
