David Vansant Obituary

We are sad to announce that on December 17, 2024 we had to say goodbye to David Vansant of Fernandina Beach, Florida. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.

In the vast expanse of eternity, may David find peace everlasting, cradled in the gentle embrace of the universe. And as we stand on the shores of remembrance, may his legacy inspire us to live each day with purpose, passion, and profound gratitude for the gift of life itself.

He was predeceased by: his parents, William Francis Vansant and Florence Kershaw. He is survived by: his wife Shirley Coleman Vansant of Macon, Georgia; his children, Jennifer Vansant Smith and Donovan Vansant; his daughter-in-law Elizabeth Mayo Vansant; his sister Gail Vansant Derdarian (Robert Derdarian) of Boston, Massachusetts; and his stepson Andrew Head of Atlanta. He is also survived by grandchildren; and numerous nieces and nephews.

Rather than flowers, the family requests that donations be made in Dave's memory to the Warner Center Community Hospice in Fernandina Beach, Florida.
