avid Carlton Ring, Jr., 51, passed away on Wednesday, August 29, 2018 at Memorial Health University Medical Center after a sudden illness.
A resident of Jesup for nearly thirty years, David was born on March 21, 1967 in Waycross, GA.

In 1989, he was recipient of a Bachelor’s Degree from Lee University in Cleveland, TN and later recipient of a Master’s Degree from Georgia Southern University. David taught for twenty-nine years in the Wayne County School System, the last twenty-four being at Martha Puckett Middle School.

David worked with the Beta Club at school and was a very active member of Calvary Baptist Church for almost twenty years. He served on numerous committees, volunteered in the sound booth and had worked many years as the Sunday School Superintendent. David was a history buff who loved reading and collecting books and magazines and whether he was meditating, taking pictures of wildlife or coaching children’s sports teams, he enjoyed spending time in the outdoors. David was a family man and will be fondly remembered for his loving and caring nature.
His mother, Yvonne D. Williams; maternal grandparents, Albert and Willie Jean Douglas; paternal grandparents, Ralph K. Ring and George S. and Mezzo Ring Davis and father-in-law, Vernon G. Cooper all preceded him in death.
