David Yen
June 21, 1958- March 2, 2022
David’s passion for loving, supporting, and taking care of others
will endure in the hearts and minds of the countless individuals
whose lives he touched. He died peacefully from pancreatic cancer at
the age of 63. David is survived by his husband Nathan Levitan,
parents Josiane and Anthony Yen, stepdaughter Rosa Levitan and her
husband Andrew Moelis, brother Dominic Yen, sister-in-law Emily Yen,
nieces Melissa and Monique Yen, sister-in-law Beth Levitan,
brother-in-law Ray Trautman, sister-in-law Amy Levitan and family,
and his dog Barney.
David had a brilliant mind that flourished in many ways. He was an
expert in English etymology. He spoke Italian fluently and was drawn
to everything Italian. He loved contemporary art and dance. His
interests in politics, history, and world travel were driven by his
commitment to liberal politics and social justice. He was a car
enthusiast and learned performance driving in recent years. David
understood technology and mechanics and could repair almost
anything. Professionally, he served in a variety of positions to
cultivate international trade and economic development for the City
of Cleveland.
David’s most compelling quality was his enormous heart. His
relationships were deep and long-lasting. With uncanny warmth,
openness, and curiosity, he acquired a large and diverse group of
friends, whom he cherished. His family was a focal point of his
life. David was humble, generous, forgiving, and always real.
