God’s plans are not always our plans. When your angels came for David on April 19, 2021, in Furman, South Carolina, it was much sooner than we planned, but we’ll brave the grief that comes and try to understand. The life of David Armando Walter began on March 24, 1993, in St. Croix, United States Virgin Islands, with the late Katherine Rivera and James Nanton. He was reared into adulthood by his adoptive parents, the late Lunid I. Walter and Keith Walter. When God created David, he created an amazing husband, father, son, brother, nephew, and friend who left a memorable impression on each life that he touched. In high school, he loved running track, earning him the name of “Track Star”. His love for video gaming earned him the title of “Starbowy”. After high school, David left his beloved St. Croix, to begin a new life in mainland USA. Finding his way to Orangeburg, SC, David was a 2017 graduate of Orangeburg Technical College, where he received an Associate degree in General Technology and certification in Welding. After graduation, David was able to use his expertise as Maintenance Technician with Ardmore Residential Management Company.
On December 2, 2018, he married the love of his life, Aisha Lenay Bellinger. This union was blessed with his only child, Elisha Keith Walter.
