David Allen Seymour Jr.
David Allen Seymour Jr. Born 1978 in Chillicothe, Ohio the first son of David Allen Seymour and Flora Elizebeth Whatley. Eldest brother to James Albert Seymour and Mary Elizebeth Seymour. David Jr. is also father to Kelley Elizebeth Seymour born in December of 1999, Dakota Austin Seymour born in November 2000, and Nahla Marie Seymour born in October 2002. Without complete fact, he is also said to be the father of Vanessa Baily Seymour born in November 1998. David (Dave) Got his GED diploma in December of 2008 at the age of 30 from the ABLE adult classes in Chillicothe, Ohio. In January of 2010, Dave attended Hocking College for an applied degree in culinary arts program where he finished in 2012. Dave continued his educational journey in May 2017 in addiction counseling where he was able to obtain his CDCA that following December. Then in January 2018-present continued with Hocking College and Franklin University of Columbus, Ohio with his applied degree in psychology where he hopes to finish in the summer of 2019 but by December for sure.

This chef turned counselor was born and raised in southern Ohio ("The Appalachian foothills). He did not have it easy growing up even in the late 1980's packing water and splitting wood and yes they even had an outhouse while it was seldom used. Dave through his own struggles always wanted to help others. With his natural love of food and learning how to cook on "the farm" was excited to go to the culinary arts school. He liked the idea of feeding the soul while having good food. In 2018 with most of eight years sobriety from chemical dependency he saw a new way to help people was with addiction. After witnessing addiction first hand with himself and with his friends and family it was an easy choice for him to make. The hardest part for him was dealing with his minor disability of severing arthritis and sleep apnea as well as being overweight. Among other things, it was hard for Dave to walk and/or stand for long periods of time.

Dave is a die heard Democrat, he loves music, poetry, and art. With his Irish and Welsh roots, he loves culture and Celtic Pagan spirituality. David Allen Seymour Jr. (talk) 16:42, 11 October 2018 (UTC)This is done by Dave Seymour and I will add more at a later date.
