David Chase Carr of Reading passed away on Tuesday June 19th 2018 at Winchester Hospital surrounded by his loved ones. Born in Winchester on June 8, 1954, he was the son of Jean S.

Dave was the devoted father of Jennifer J. Carr of Wakefield, David J. Carr of Wakefield, Nicholas C. Carr and his wife Jessica of Billerica. Dave's greatest joy came from being with his family, especially his 9 month old granddaughter Abigail Juliette.
Dave was a member of Teamsters Local 25 and worked as a truck driver for 37 years until he retired from Stop and Shop in 2014. He always had a passion for watching and attending drag races with his twin brother Al traveling to different states, as they befriended many of the racing crew.
Most of all he loved spending summers with his family at their cottage on Damariscotta Lake Maine, boating, fishing and waterskiing. Dave was an avid sports fan and closely followed the Red Sox, Patriots, Bruins and Celtics.
