It is with great sadness that I share with you that David P. DeMarea died unexpectedly on October 2, 2011. David was Senior Vice President, ARVEST Bank Operations, Lowell, Arkansas and a long-standing Director of our association. David joined the MPX Board of Directors in 1991 and continued to serve the association until his passing last week.
I attended David’s memorial service on Thursday, October 6 in Rogers, Arkansas. It was apparent that David’s zeal for life, warmth and willingness to share of himself extended far beyond our association. David will be greatly missed by EPCOR, his fellow ARVEST associates, his community and most certainly his family. Our heartfelt condolences go out to his wife Debbie, daughters Nicole and Alexandra and his extended family.
