David Lloyd Dallman

June 26, 1952 ~ March 09, 2024

Let the family know you care by sharing this tribute.

David Lloyd Dallman died March 9, 2024 in Vero Beach FL following a brief illness. He was surrounded by family and friends. He was 71 years old.

David was born in San Francisco, on June 26, 1952, the only son of Ruth and Vernon Dallman Jr. He grew up in San Jose, and as a child enjoyed fishing, camping, sports and music. He attended Chico State University and studied Business Administration. He worked as a chef, and later as manager of the Big Oak Plaza in Santa Rosa, CA. When he retired, he moved to Lahaina, HI, but after the fire in August, he moved to Sebastian FL.

David enjoyed rock music, the ocean, scuba diving, traveling the world, motorcycles and fast cars. He appreciated fine craftsmanship in watches, art, pens and knives, but his friends and his family were his true treasure. With a quick wit, sense of humor and no filter, David and his colorful stories and jokes would often light up the room with laughter. Always up for an adventure, he was talking about going to Portugal and Japan even in the days before his passing.

As one of his friends put it, “The world just became a little more boring”. David is survived by his sister, Diana (Michael) Silva, and her children, Daniel (Laura) and their children, Gregory (MyKenzie) Silva and their children, and Kathryn Silva. Services and burial will be private. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests considering a donation to St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital.

Let the family know you care by sharing this tribute.

My dear friend, I just can’t believe you are gone. You were always like my little brother, 48 years of an incredible friendship. Always protecting each other.And everyday I remember some story or things that you used to do or like and I crack up laughing at your crazy yet tender personality. You were described by your sister with such accuracy. I wish from my heart I could have done so much more for you. But I think it was your time to explore the far and beyond . I will never forget you. Till we will meet again .

I only knew David a short while thru Anita and Tommy, was so very sorry to hear about David’s passing. The little bit I did , I remember him talking about his dog and how much he loved his dog. May he now be reunited with his dog and loved ones in Heaven.

The service from Millennium was outstanding. Rachel was sweet, personable and very comforting. It was important to me that my dad was kept locally where I knew where he would be. Very nice facility, state of the art and quality of my fathers remains were so refined compared to my mothers years ago. I highly recommend this place for an affordable choice for your loved one. Thank you for making an already stressful event easy. With high regards, the Esposito and Keith Family.

Millennium Cremation provided a fantastic service to our family at a difficult time. Our beloved mother passed away in Vero Beach and the rest of the family was in other parts of the country. Due to the Covid health crisis, none of us could get to Vero Beach in person. That's where Millennium took over. They helped us manage everything, coordinated with a cemetery in Maine, managed the obituaries, expedited all the paperwork, and even delivered an important document locally that saved us days. Funeral director Rachel was a godsend, and she made it clear what she was going to do, and what we needed to do. If you know what you want, Millennium is highly recommended, and the savings versus the full service mortuaries is significant.
