David Stephen Bralish entered into the arms of our Lord on May 14, 2021.  He is survived by his wife of nearly 35 years, Shirley, David Jr. (Jasmine) (Saraphine), Jessica Haas (Josh)(Scarlett, Athena and Eva), Justin (Summer)(Bella).  His beautiful mother, Josephine, 8 brothers and sisters. Joseph (Sue), Janet (Frankie), Darlene (John), Cindy(Brett), Laurie  (Steve), Marybeth(Steve), Chuck(Vi), and Pam(Lonnie). Besides his 5 beautiful granddaughters, he has 20 nieces and nephews and 18 great nieces and nephews, countless cousins and extended family.  Yes, he has a big family!!

How do we sum up the life of this incredible man?  Let’s begin with the day he entered this world with his twin sister, Darlene, on February 17, 1957.  He was born to Joseph and Josephine Bralish in Youngstown Ohio, where he would spend his first 13 years of life.  Exploring the woods with his brothers and driving his sisters crazy.

In 1970 the family moved to Northglenn, Colorado where David and his 8 siblings lived with his brave parents. 

School wasn’t exactly his thing, but you put a horse in front of him that got him all fired up.  He rode bareback in rodeos all over Colorado and surrounding states.  He would be the first one to tell you that he lost a few brain cells doing that.

In August of ‘77, David welcomed into the world his first born son, David Joseph Walker Bralish, his pride and joy.  David helped raise his son and enjoyed every minute that he was able to spend with him.( Ask David)

In 1981 David proudly enlisted in the United States Army.  He graduated from Basic training at Ft.Leonard Wood Missouri, which is also where his God daughter Chloe recently graduated from. He was so proud of her.  

After Basic Training David was then stationed in Ft. Hood Texas where he trained to become a Spec.4 engineer.  In his spare time he continued riding bare back in the rodeo; competing around Texas and chasing armadillos.

David’s next military assignment was in Germany. David’s knack for adventure led to many memories in Germany; skiing the Alps, learning the language and becoming an expert in German beer.  He still has friends in Germany to this day.

David was honorably discharged from the Army in 1985, he served 4 years active duty and 2 years in the reserves.  His patriotism lives on forever.

After the military another adventure was in store for David. A blonde young lady named Shirley would fall madly in love with this crazy cowboy.  

“It would take a while for David and I to gather up the nerve to see one another, but his big brother, Butch (Joe) and then wife, Sherri, would decide to set us up on a date.

So sometime in December of 1985, there we were, him in his 10 gallon hat and me pretending to be 29 instead of 19 so I could have a drink.  I had him convinced that I was an older, sophisticated lady, when really I was a 19 year old girl falling head over heels for a cowboy!!  Once I fessed up and told him my real age, he didn’t seem bothered by it at all!!” -Shirley Bralish

The very next year, on August 9, 1986, that dreamy cowboy and his young bride were married. 

Two years later, David and Shirley welcomed their daughter, Jessica.  She was the apple of his eye.  There was nothing that could separate this daddy from his little girl.  He was so excited the day she started riding horses.  She was 3 but Pickles could take her around a ring pretty well.  Dave taught her about the outdoors but also made her feel beautiful by taking her to get her nails done on daddy daughter dates .  His pride only continued to grow as Jessie started a family of her own. Scarlett and baby Athena brought so much joy to Dave, he felt his heart could explode with love.

In 1993, David and Shirley’s youngest son, Justin entered the world by storm.  David loved watching Justin play football and finding whatever trouble they could. Dave and Justin would camp, climb, swim , explore and hang with the guys.  David is so proud of the wonderful man that Justin has become.  Dave was so excited to welcome Justin’s fiancé, Summer and her daughter Isabelle into our family.  We will miss his crazy dance moves, that is for sure.

In 2003, David Jr. would welcome into the world Saraphine Bralish who loved her grandpa and all of his adventures.  Sara couldn’t wait to ride with her grandpa every chance she could get.

Riding motorcycles became a passion for Dave later in life, when his bones could no longer handle bareback riding. The first bike was a Vulcan and he loved her like no other, but quickly discovered that if he wanted the other love of his life with him, he probably needed a different bike that they could both venture on.  David and Shirley joined the  American Legion Riders which changed their life for the better;  It combined Dave’s love of motorcycles and his country it also brought Dave and Shirley a new found second family.  It was here that David found his voice.  He was quickly made a recruiter for the ALR.   He brought and welcomed in several brothers and sisters, including his daughter, Jessie and son-in-law Josh, who joined to honor his fathers service as a helicopter medic in the Vietnam War. David loved the camaraderie and brotherhood while being able to serve  the community and honor fellow military men and women. The American Legion ultimately gave Dave the adventure his soul craved and the opportunity to see the beautiful state of Colorado with his wife. 

David was known for sharing his vigor for life. Whether it was pulling his kids with a 4 wheeler down the road during a blizzard, taking them hiking , fishing , camping, or teaching them how to garden, Dave knew how to make it all more exciting, whether he meant to or not.  

David was an employee at Sysco Food services for 35 years and hated every minute of it!  David happily retired in January of 2021.

David has a love for the Lord that is unmatched.  He loved talking about scripture with family and friends.  He wanted to introduce everyone to Jesus and help them to get to know his Savior.  He loved saying the rosary with his mother, Josephine.

He loved listening to prayer, worship and preachers from all walks of life.

Dave never met a stranger and everyone was his friend.  He would light up a room with his positivity , humor and smile and then clear the same room with his farts.

It goes without saying, David is a very loved man and has left quite a legacy behind.  We promise to make you proud. David loved loving, and David is so loved.
