David Larkins Obituary
Lawrence, KS was home for David for 40+ years. He was an avid reader and gifted conversationalist. David could turn a stranger into a friend in a matter of minutes. He was also a sports fan, committed to his Jayhawks, Chiefs and Royals.
David will be remembered as a loving and devoted father, brother, uncle and friend.
He is survived by his daughter, Crishna Vossman and husband Matt, of Denver; sister, Lynnette Caldwell, of Salina; niece Katy Caldwell; niece Summer St. Louis and husband Spencer; great-nieces Larkin and Greer.
A memorial gathering will be held on a later date.
