October 7, 1952 to April 20, 2020

It is with profound sadness that the Mayango and Kingsley families announce the passing of their husband, father, brother, uncle, grand father and in-law, David Z. Mayango. David, Duke O'marley, DWP, Mongo, Zero hour and Papay as he was affectionately known by many, made his transition from this world on April 20, 2020, after a brief stay in the St. Francis Hospital, Delaware USA.

Mr. David Z. Mayango loved the Lord and was a devoted Lutheran. He was considered a friend and father to many including those that were not his biological children. Those of us who were fortunate to know him, witnessed him making the care and well being of humanity his first priority. He was filled with compassion and taught humanity the importance of exemplary character and leadership.

He leaves to mourn his death his beloved wife Nancy Kingsley Mayango, several children biological and adopted, 5 brothers, 1 sister, 2 sons in law, 3 daughters in law, several nieces and nephews, 24 grand childrens, several in-laws and a host of other relatives and friends.
