David Allen Nix passed away August 3, 2019 at Norton Audubon Hospital. He was a father of two and grandfather of one. He was loved by all including family, friends, and his dog BooBoo. He was Baptist and a member of Derby City BOP (Dance Club) where he spent a lot of time and made many dear friends. Retired from Huttig & Sash and Doors, and former president of Local 236 Union. We will miss his infectious and contagious smile. He may have been a man of few words but his quirky one liners would get his point across. He had a passion of good food and dance. David was preceded in death by his loving wife, Brenda Nix; parents, Herchel and Amy Isaacs Nix; and his Dog KarKar.
David is survived by his son, David W. Nix; daughter, Stephanie Nix; grandson, Jordan Phelps; companion, Joyce Welsh; brother, Mike Pugh; sister, Linda (John) Miller; aunt and uncle, Ethel (John) Romanini; cousin, Tina (Mike) Harness; his furry friend, BooBoo; and a host of family and close friends.
Visitation will be from 4 to 8pm on Thursday, August 8, 2019 at Newcomer Cremations, Funerals and Receptions, East Louisville Chapel, 235 Juneau Drive, Louisville, KY (in Middletown). A celebration of David's life will be 11am Friday, August 9th at the funeral home, with burial to follow in Evergreen Cemetery.
