David Allan Widman
November 11, 1956 – August 17, 2020
With deepest sorrow, we announce that David Allan Widman, 63, our beloved husband, father, son, brother and friend passed suddenly on Monday, August 17, 2020 at home.
Born in Chicago, Illinois on November 11, 1956, he moved to Maryland at a young age and graduated from James M. Bennett High School in Salisbury, MD. He graduated from the University of Maryland with a degree in Business and served in the U.S. Navy for 8 years. He worked at the Office of Naval Intelligence for over 30 years. Dave’s greatest joy was being with his family. He had the biggest heart and the sharpest mind and he moved through this world with grace and kindness. He was a big Chicago Sports Fan and his passion for sports was passed on to his family and friends.
David will be missed every day by his wife, Peggy; sons, David Jr and Charlie; daughter, Maggie; father, Richard Widman; sisters Donna (Hank) Rebach; Debra (Bruzz) Truitt; Susan (Paul) Riley; brothers-in-law Charles Dougherty and Bill (Bernadette) Dougherty and several nieces and nephews.

I first met Dave back in 2005 when I was a new employee at ONI and we went on to work with him on many different projects since. This however is not the highlight of my time knowing him. While Dave was a true patriot for our Nation, I will emphasize the fact that he put so much effort into his work to ensure his family and kids were well taken care of. Family was by far was his number one goal and for that he should be commended. I pray for family healing and comfort in his passing and even though he probably didn’t mention many folks at work, he will be missed by many.
