David A. Liscinsky

David was born August 11, 1966 in Rutland, Vermont, the third of five children to Robert and Diana (Valente) Liscinsky. David was a devoted father, devout Catholic, and was committed to family. He attended, Christ the King School, and Mount Saint Joseph Academy (‘84) where he was a member of the Division I State Champion Football and Basketball teams. David graduated from Norwich University (‘88) with a degree in electrical engineering, and received advanced masters degrees in engineering from both Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and John Hopkins University. He had a 32-year career with the Department of Defense, National Security Agency in Fort Meade, Maryland, including serving three years in England. He was looking forward to retiring in the next year to enjoy traveling. David was also a member of St. Nicholas Catholic Church and the Knights of Columbus, serving as Financial Secretary for his local council.

David had a zest for life. He brought passion, energy, and joy in every activity undertaken. He would dive into the finer details of many things; whether working on his car, making pizza dough, or discussing the intricacies of MSJ’s Delaware Wing-T blocking. David would have a smile on his face and a razor- sharp purpose with his focus on the task at hand.

David loved the holidays and would relish in the opportunity to share the many traditions experienced growing up. This includes delivering a dozen trees every Christmas to family and friends, and making wine in the basement. David was thoughtful and generous to a fault, he never wanted any fanfare but if someone indicated a want or need, David would take it on as his task to fulfill. He also was proud of his involvement with the Knights, allowing him to again fulfill a need of helping people and donate time to worthwhile causes.

Most importantly, David loved his son Andrew. David made it a point to enjoy multiple trips a year with Andrew, either brief weekend excursions or a week-long visit to historical sites and National Landmarks.

David is survived by his son Andrew, his sister Mary (Ron) of Windsor, CT, his three brothers Robert (Mary) of St. Albans, VT, Joseph (Kelly) of So. Burlington, VT, and John (Stacy) of Mars, PA. He is also survived by 10 nieces and nephews along with several cousins. David was preceded in death by his father in November, 2009 and mother in January, 2021.
