David was born in Brady, Texas on September 8, 1942 to Seth F Farmer and Margaret (Sutton) Farmer.  He spent his childhood years in Odessa, Tx, graduating from Odessa High School; attended college at Texas State University on a track scholarship and later graduated from Texas Tech.  His working years were in finance and accounting, primarily with oilfield manufacturing companies in the Houston area.  Later, he established his own financial planning and investment firm.  Upon retirement, he raised Dorper sheep and border collies on his beloved ranch.

He is survived by his loving wife, Dianne Lackey Farmer of Brownwood; two daughters, Lauren Pasket (Mike) of Anderson, Tx, and Julie Carrell (Stephen) of Singleton, Tx, and one son Zachary Tew of San Diego, Ca.  Also, four grandchildren, Kati Gorrell (Jeremy) of Singleton, Tx; Tyler Case (Brittany) of Spring, Tx; Alea Hendrick (Corey) of Singleton, Tx and Jackson Carrell (Kristin) of Singleton, Tx.  He is also survived by three great grandchildren. His sister Mary (Prissy) Cloud of Brownwood, Tx and his Aunt Pat Meinzer of Houston, Tx, also survive him as well as several cousins.

His family would like to thank Dr. Tom Byrd and Alpha Omega Hospice for their compassionate and excellent care.  No flowers are requested.  Please donate to the charity of your choice.
