Dr. Dave R. Mull was born in Norfolk, VA to Noel and Arnold Mull, while Arnold was in the service. The family moved back to Wilmington CA where Dave attended Gulf Avenue Elementary School, Wilmington Junior High School and Banning High School. Growing up Dave developed a passion for motocross, desert riding and sailing.
Dave spent his professional life as a Doctor of Chiropractic caring for the health care needs of his patients in Long Beach and the South Bay until he retired in 2007.
Dave married his wife Terry in 1985 and in 1990 they welcomed their son Ethan to their family. Although Terry and Dave divorced in 1997, they remained friends and shared raising Ethan and working together in his practice until Dave’s retirement.
Always a voracious reader, you never saw Dave without a book. In his later years that book was his bible. He enjoyed good Mexican food, garlic bread, good sipping tequila, video poker, Jimmy Buffet and Bob Dylan music, Hawaiian shirts, being on a boat, playing golf, and having a good dog around. He was happiest in his seasoned boat shoes and his faded Levis.
Dave is survived by his Mom Noel, son Ethan, brother Gary (Katherine), sister Cathy (Frank), former wife/friend Terry, nieces, nephew, grand nieces, grand nephews and many friends. Services will be held on Wed. 4/27/2022 at 2 p.m. at Green Hills Memorial Park, 27501 S. Western Ave., Rancho Palos Verdes 90275. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to:
