David Wayne

Nichols

David Wayne Nichols, 72, of Dean, TX, passed away on July 15, 2026, surrounded by his family.

David, born on December 14, 1953, to Bill and Dolorous in Wichita Falls, immediately brought joy and laughter into the world. David went on to graduate from Midway High School in 1972.

In 1979, he met Jill, and the two were inseparable from that point on. David and Jill were married for over 42 years and had two sons, Levi and Zach.

David was a fiercely dedicated dad to both of his children. Family came first and was above all else to David, a value he instilled in all those around him. The hole left by his absence is impossible to fill.

David was predeceased by his parents Bill and Dolorous. He is survived by his sister Cynthia Gee and husband Johnny of Dean, TX; sister Eugenia Clifton and husband Denny of Conroe, TX; son Levi Nichols and wife Britney and their two sons Caleb and Parker of Newark, TX; son Zach Nichols and wife Tiffany and their children Brody, Charlotte, and Nathaniel of Wichita Falls, TX. Services will be held at 10 AM on Friday, July 24, 2026, at the Heritage Church in Wichita Falls.
