Peacefully at Lakeridge Health Bowmanville, on Wednesday, March 18, 2026, in his 86th year. Beloved husband of Anne (nee Thompson). Loving father of Kevin (Heather), Derek (Kendra) and Ian (Patty Rhodes). Cherished grandfather of Kathryn, Adam, Elizabeth, James and Jacob. A complete service will be held on Friday, March 27, 2026, at 11 a.m. in the MacCoubrey Funeral Home Chapel, Cobourg, with visiting from 10 a.m. – 11 a.m. Donations to the Northumberland Hills Hospital Foundation would be appreciated by the family.
To the Fullerton family, I offer my sincere condolences. Along with David, my deceased husband- Roy Smith- was also part of the "platoon" of retired police officers who met regularly for many years at the Dutch Oven on Thursday mornings in Cobourg. It was always a very happy and supportive group of police officers sharing the joy of retirement through many stories, laughs, and lots of ideas about how to improve the policing situation in local towns. David's joy of traveling provided regular reports of adventures in exotic parts of the world seen from cruise ships... I also remember the MANY Tuesday evenings at the Victoria Park Bandshell on our folding chairs enjoying the beautiful live music of the Concert Band of Cobourg, munching on treats. Very happy retirement days for all. As David's passing is gradually integrated by all family members, may there be a peaceful heart for everyone. Madeleine Thibault-Smith

I’m sorry to hear about Dave’s passing. I knew Dave when he was in the Detective office in 55 Division. Later when I joined the Cobourg Police I was fortunate enough to have met up with him on several occasions. He will be missed.
Dave was one of my Sergeants when I started working at 55 Division in the early 80s. Really enjoyed working for him and with him, fond memories, he will be missed.
