Charles "David" Lamb, 69 of Tulsa, Oklahoma passed from this life on Tuesday, December 15, 2020 in a Tulsa hospital. He was born on May 16, 1951 in Wichita Falls, Texas to his parents, Charles William Lamb and Laura Dean Brooks Lamb. He married the love of his life, Renee Marie Bochat on January 30, 1982 in Houston, Texas and they have shared in over 38 wonderful years making memories together. They had three beautiful children, traveled the world together, and shared an unwavering faith in Jesus Christ. David spent 44 years in the engineering and project execution sectors of the oil and gas industry, first at KBR and later with Chevron. He functioned in several engineering and management positions while also serving numerous years on the American Society of Mechanical Engineers – Section VIII Code Committee.

After he retired, he worked as an instructor at the Tulsa Welding School, fulfilling his desire to impart the professional knowledge and experience he accumulated to the next generation.

He enjoyed a variety of hobbies including: tending to his flourishing vegetable garden, honing his photography skills on the African Savanna, playing his favorite class rock and country tunes on the guitar, and self-publishing his own book on Biblical Hebrew Poetry. Generosity, kindness and dedication to the Lord were all central to David’s life. He was a man of great talents yet immense humility.
