David Brownfield Horne, of Orlando, Florida, passed away Thursday, August 15, 2019.

Born June 22, 1953, in Paducah, Kentucky, he was a son of the late William G. and Elizabeth B. Horne.

David was a member of the first graduating class at Pocahontas County High School, he previously attended Green Bank High School. He then attended Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, Virginia, earning a Bachelor’s Degree in 1975 and a Master’s Degree in 1977 in Civil Engineering.

He worked in the missile programs for Boeing in Renton, Washington, and then for Martin Marietta/Lockheed Martin in Orlando, Florida. He retired in 2016, to devote time to his love of travel.

David was an active member of the Central Florida Chapter of the Virginia Tech Alumni Association, serving as president for many years, Virginia Tech Hokie Club and Virginia Tech Ut Prosim Society. He rarely missed a Virginia Tech football game, whether at home or on the road, and never missed a bowl game featuring the Hokies.

He is survived by an uncle, Bud Horne, and Diane, of Rural Retreat, Virginia; a brother, Daniel Horne, and Dayle, of Chesapeake Virginia; a sister, Amy Guillen, and Gary, of Albuquerque, New Mexico; and numerous cousins, nieces and nephews.
