David Ladd

David Ladd, 54, was born on October 4, 1966 in Little Rock, Arkansas to Norman and Lita Ladd.  He died on Monday, November 16 at the Elizabeth Richardson Center, Norman Home in Springdale, AR after a short illness.  David lived with his parents in Sherwood, AR until the age of 43.  He attended North HIlls Exception School and Workshop daily until he moved to Springdale.  David was full of life and happiness. He had a few shenanigans that he was known for and those who knew him...know what they were.

He loved Elvis, Hotwheels and Matchbox cars, waffles, pancakes and Dr. Pepper. He was able to live a simple and happy life free from most worries.  David had an infectious smile and he loved to make people laugh.  He will be missed by his family brother, Jeff Ladd (Alice), sister, Donna Linker (Mark), Nephew, Joel Linker, Niece, Brittnee Wiles ( Merrick) and his grand niece, Elliot.  He had several cousins and large extended family.  He is preceded in death by his mother and father, Lita and Norman Ladd.

The family would like to thank Elizabeth Richardson Center in Springdale, for the constant love, support, and care of David for the last 10 years.  They will miss him greatly too.
