Price.
On July 14, 1973 he married the love of his life, Kathy Born. They recently celebrated their 50th

a lover of the land some would say, so farming came easy to him. A career he enjoyed in the
Smyer - Lubbock area for more than 50 years. David will always be remembered as a
wonderful friend and family man. Especially when good food and a cold beer were nearby. A
true farmer, always concerned about the rain and whether it was coming in soon or too late and
just how much but never enough.
David is preceded in death by his father Billy Owen Price. He is survived by his mother Helen
June Price, sister Carolyn and her husband Ray Harris, brothers Charlie and Paul Price along
