He became a homeowner in Ocean Villas shortly thereafter, and has enjoyed many years escaping the Canadian Winters.

He was President of Ocean Villas, and served on the Board of the Treasure Cay Community Foundation (TCCF).  David, along with a team of volunteers, helped to rebuild Cooper’s Town Primary School, and has been working to provide disaster relief and  rebuilding support since Hurricane Dorian struck in 2019.

David’s personal Treasure Cay story commenced in 1971 when his parents, Peter and Betty, purchased a Garden Villa. In 1979, they purchased Toad Hall on Ocean Boulevard together with the Hepburn family.  A Lowe painting commemorating Betty’s love for Treasure Cay hangs in the Community Centre, who died in 1980. Peter remarried and introduced Vivienne to the delights of Treasure Cay.  They remained active residents, yacht club members, and keen socializers, and were a key part of the community until Vivienne had a stroke 14 years ago.

David is the founder of Van de Wiel International,(1981). His company represents original equipment suppliers in the European and Global automotive industry, specializing in  marketing focus on new technology related to emissions, weight and fuel saving components.
 
He sold his company in 2014, concentrating on retirement and building a home in Treasure Cay. David and Lesley and have visited Treasure Cay every year, and their  daughter, Piera, an accomplished singer, songwriter, and humanitarian, who has written  “Come Back Home, (Abaco Relief Song” has been an annual visitor since she was 7 months old.
