One of five children of the late Kenneth R. and Theresa C. (Mason) Boulia, he was born in Nashua on February 1, 1963. David was educated in Nashua schools and had been employed at Highland Tool Company, Inc.

He especially looked forward each year to participating in the New Year’s Day Swim in Boston, the SONH Penguin Plunge at Hampton Beach and the Ice Fishing Derby at Lake Winnipesaukee where he will be missed this year.
