David Dean Gibson, 58, Marion, passed away in his home at 12:20 p.m. on Friday, January 25, 2019. He was born in Marion on December 5, 1960, to Robert Dean Gibson and to Betty May (Buteau) Gibson.
David graduated from Eastbrook High School in 1979. He started his career with Corning Glass Works in Bluffton, where he worked for 5 years.
