I moved back home and just recently returned to the states...and just learnt of David's passing..I am so shocked that he left us too soon. I will remember the laughter ( over watching a Ron White DVD), and the friendship we had. He was a very sweet man and will be missed.

David C. HoodLoving partner, brother, uncle, cousin and friend;It is with profound sadness that we announce the unexpected passing of David Campbell Hood on June 1, 2021.David was born in Lowell, Ma September 17, 1970 and raised in Dracut, Ma. He has left us much to soon. He joins his late cherished parents Barbara (Hood) & Robert J. Angluin and his beloved brother Mark David Hood, who passed on August 6, 2020. We take solace knowing they are reunited in heaven.He leaves behind his life partner Julie DiGirolamo & their “daughter” dog: Willow Rose of Wilmington, his sister Karen (Hood) LaFramboise & her husband Mark of Dracut, his niece Courtney (Dalphond) Giordano, her husband David and their two daughters Chloe and Sydney of Billerica. He is also survived by his aunt Rose Marie Prescott of NH, his Godmother Judy Kostoulakos of NH, his large and loving stepfamily: the Angluin’s & their families, and many cousins. He nurtured and cherished lifelong friendships: Kevin & Allie Sgro and Paul & Jen Moreira and many other dear friends, locally and in many parts of the country.David was a very gifted athlete throughout his life and spent his early years pursuing a career in an “unknown” sport now called MMA. He helped to bring this style of fighting to Massachusetts and upon retiring spent many years teaching and mentoring other young athletes. His famous teaching line, “things should be felt before they are seen” and “Learn to see and be within yourself” has been repeated often in people’s recollections of his beliefs.In life, he was a VERY bright light! Anyone who spent time and got to know David was rewarded with a loyal friendship, protection and sometimes… to much fun! For those he loved, they will miss his powerful style of loving. You could see it in his eyes and feel it in his intense hugs. David was a deep thinker, a passionate man and appreciated solitude to practice his devotion to his arts.In his older years David enjoyed a long and loving relationship with Julie and their dog, often playing his guitars at Rye Beach. He became a quiet man and yearned for peace, which he found with his small family. He enjoyed watching his loved ones as he often engaged in “Facebook watching” unbeknownst to them. He will be deeply missed and always loved, by those who cherished him.A Celebration of Life will be held on Thursday, July 29, 2021 from 6 to 9 P.M. at Friends Restaurant, 350 Market St. in Lowell, MA. Please feel free to come by and help us pay tribute to David’s memory. E-condolences may be sent to: www.odonnellfuneralhome.com.
