David Louis Maini

David L. Maini, 57, of Milford, beloved husband of Sandy (Choi) Maini, passed away on September 14, 2021. Born on October 29, 1963 in Providence, RI, he was the son of Gino Maini and Lynda Notte. 

He loved to travel and take in all the different cultures of the world.  He was a chef by profession but he was truly an artist and had a passion for creating and enjoying good food and good drink.  He wanted to taste and experience everything he could.  David will be fondly remembered as that one person that anyone could truly turn to for love and support.  He was deeply loved and will be incredibly missed by all who was fortunate to know him.  He had a wonderful ability to be able to form an immediate connection and bond with everyone he met.  David was extremely compassionate to everyone he met, and, he gave everything he had to everyone around him. 

In addition to his parents and wife, David is survived by his children, Nick and Amanda Maini, and Zachary and Mandy Maini; his grandchildren, Cassius, Lucian, Sterling, Charlotte, and Sawyer; his siblings, Christopher John Maini, Matthew and Myra Maini, and Gina Maini; his nieces and nephews, Christopher, Jr., Isabella and her fiancé Miles Mundy, Matthew, Jr., Gino, and Gabby; his godmother, Susan Nutini; his mother-in-law, Jean Choi; his brother-in-law, Paul Choi; his aunt and uncle William and Donna McGowan; and his fur babies, Otto, Olaf, and Jax.
