David Aaron Ventress, “CHIEF”, 72, of Tyler, passed away April 11, 2025.
David Aaron Ventress, our awesome and one-of-a-kind Dad, lost his battle with cancer.
Born on the 5th of April 1953 and was born into the Choctaw Native American Tribe. David was a simple man who loved his children and family. He loved fishing and was an excellent artist. He was the kindest person and had such a wonderful smile and sense of humor. He was a very loving father, always hugging us and telling us, “I love you”.
David had a beautiful soul and he loved the Lord. He was a proud Navy Veteran and served our country with great honor. Also known as “Chief” to his family and friends David was a member of the Choctaw Nation.
David left us too soon; we are all devastated and heartbroken by his passing. He is survived by his ex-wife Cynthia and children Noel, Shawna, Erin, and DJ Ventress. He has been a wonderful Father, Son, Husband and child of God. We will truly miss him all the days of our lives.
