David Arthur Elfstrom
November 21, 1942 — July 27, 2012
David Arthur Elfstrom, 69, of Ellsworth, NH died July 27, 2012 after a period of failing health.
He was born in Beverly, MA on November 21, 1942 to Arthur and Helen (Peterson) Elfstrom.
David was a lobsterman for many years before joining the Beverly, MA Fire department where he retired as Captain in 1987. David was a Master Mason and a Shriner who volunteered at the Shriners Burn Center in Boston, MA. He was also a member of the Plymouth Lodge of Elks #2312 for 22 years, where he was "Mr Fix-it."
He is predeceased by his first wife, Roberta (Doherty) Elfstrom, who passed away in 1990. He leaves behind his wife, Katherine Piper (Elfstrom), of Ellsworth, his daughter, Kristin (Elfstrom) Bucci, and her husband David and their daughters Emily and Isabel of Beverly, MA, his son, Derek Elfstrom, and his wife Kim and their daughter Adrianna of Campton, and his step-children and their families, Tammy (Piper) DeLorenzo of Plymouth, Michele (Piper) Beasley of Sanbornton and Michael Piper of Moultonborough.
David was a "Jack-of-all Trades." He loved mechanics, woodworking, "Deadliest Catch," NASCAR, vacationing in Boothbay Harbor, ME and having lunch (and a few cocktails) with his buddies.
Services for David will be held on Saturday, August 4th at 10:00 a.m. at St. John of the Mountains Chapel, in Ellsworth, NH. Officiating will be the Reverend "Skip" Schwartz. After the service there will be a gathering at noon at the Country Cow Restaurant in Campton.
Per David's request, in lieu of flowers, donations may be made in his memory to the Shriners Hospital for Children - Burn Center, 55 Blossom St., Boston, MA 02114. To quote David, "Forget the flowers when you can do some good by donating to a great facility like the Burn Center!"
