This episode is dedicated to 22 Too Many Veteran:






David Yee











“David was a Navy veteran of 20 years. He was born in
Reno, Nevada and made his childhood home in Sparks,
Nevada. He always made friends easily. When he was
young, our neighborhood had a lot of children – he was
always the oldest, and the neighborhood kids looked up
to him. He was an avid UNR (University of Reno)
Wolfpack fan and attended as many games as he could. He
was a father of 5, but his struggle with PTSD was hard
on his relationships and ended in either divorce or
just a split up. He has 3 other brothers that served in
the Navy also. His youngest brother is currently a
lieutenant serving as an air traffic controller.

David loved to hunt and fish and would take his eldest
to hunt also.

After retiring from the Navy, David struggled with
mental issues and at one time turned away from me as he
felt I was prying too much into his business. I only
wanted him to get help. He never felt he had a problem.
He estranged himself from quite a few people and didn’t
realize it was due to the issues he was struggling
with.

He had just gotten remarried 1 ½ years ago and had a
new baby that just turned a year old in November. She
will never know her dad which is sad because when he
was having good days, he could be the best dad ever. I
will miss his laughter and smile.” Shared by his
mother, Janis

States he called home: Virginia, California and
Nevada

Final Rest: Northern Nevada Veterans Memorial Cemetery
in Fernley, Nevada
