David Pekrul was born in New Westminster, B. C. Canada and raised and educated in Port Coquitlam, B. C. Canada. He spent most of his adult life working in the travel industry, first as a Travel Consultant, then with a major Canadian airline and retired in October 14, 2005. Prior to his career in travel, David attended Bible College, played trumpet, both solo and in amateur groups, and preached whenever asked. Since retirement he has tried a few different jobs, just trying to find out what he wants to really do. He has worked in a funeral home and crematorium, front desk at a hotel, dispatcher for a moving company and projectionist at a theatre. He is now back working in a funeral home again, and feels that is the job he was always meant to do. David wrote his first poem in February, 2004, as an Anniversary card for his wife, Linda. Being rather pleased by the results of his first attempt, he wrote a second one, then another and another. He soon realized that he was in love with words. The pictures that his words paint may not always be pretty, but they are pictures worth viewing, for he writes about the world around him, whether they be things good, bad or otherwise. He also writes about family, nature, God and faith. David makes his home in the foothills of the Canadian Rockies with his wife Linda and spoiled pup, Tiki. |
