David Whalen

June 19, 1931 — July 15, 2014

ALBANY- David Paul Whalen SR., 83, passed away on Tuesday, July 15th, 2014, at St. Peters Hospice Inn.

Born on June 19th 1931, in Albany NY, the son of the late Francis and Viola Whalen. He was born and raised in Albany NY. David was a veteran of the Air Force from 1950 to 1954 during the Korean War.

David married Patricia 'Pat' (Viglucci) on June 9th, 1956. Married for 58 years they had 3 children: Lori (Greg Oldehoff), Michele and David Jr (Maureen).

David and Pat started their married life in Albany, where David worked as an Operations Supervisor at AT&T in Albany.

David is survived by his sister; Maureen Winrick of Charlotte, NC and predeceased by his brothers Francis and Charles Whalen.
He is survived by his grandchildren Geoffrey and Brittany Oldehoff, and David Whalen III.

David will always be remembered for his kind and gentle ways and especially for his sense of humor. David's true passion was his family, doting always on his grandchildren. David was a "die-hard" Boston Red Sox fan, who enjoyed greatly the jovial banter between himself and his fellow Yankee Rivals!
