David is survived by his wife, Nadine Kent Silcox of Murrayville and sons, Christopher David Silcox (Brandi Cabe) of Jefferson, Georgia and James Casey Silcox (Shelby) of Gainesville.

Silcox of Gainesville and Elijah Kent of Murrayville.
David attended Columbus High School in Columbus, Georgia and graduated from Georgia Southwestern in 1971. He was a member of Kappa Sigma fraternity at Georgia Southwestern College.
David was a quiet, hard working man. He spent most of his career as an executive in the textile industry before making the move to working outside, where he loved to be the most. He enjoyed fishing, a round of golf, riding his Harley-Davidson motorcycle and a well timed one-liner! He had made several trips to Sturgis South Dakota, his joy of riding out west with others from across the nation was one of his many passions.
The family will receive friends at Memorial Park South, 4121 Falcon Parkway., Flowery Branch, Georgia on Sunday, April 22 at 3:00. Please remember David with a contribution to a charity of your choice or better still do something special with your family next weekend.
