From the time he could grasp the concept, 61-year-old north Columbus resident David Bynum knew he had been adopted.
“I was about 5 or 6 years old,” Bynum said, when the only parents he ever had known, Coy and Nell Bynum, told him he was adopted.
For nearly the next six decades, Bynum didn’t dwell for long periods of time about his biological parents, but they never were far from his mind.
“No matter how well you’re raised, you always have that question, he said.
But Bynum was busy raising his own family, which included his only biological child, his daughter, Joanna, with his first wife, a stepson, Marcus, and a stepdaughter, Sheena, with his second wife. He also was working as a defensive coordinator for football teams at Marion-Franklin High School, his alma mater Eastmoor High School, from which he graduated in 1977, and, most recently, Reynoldsburg High School.
