David Henry Wyatt, 52, the former vice president of training and communications services at Computer Technology Services Inc., of Rockville, died of a malignant brain tumor Feb. 2 at Casey House Hospice in Rockville.

Mr. Wyatt, who lived in Bethesda, was born in Fleetwood, England. He graduated from Cambridge University's Trinity College, where he also earned a master's degree in arts.

He began his career in Sudan as a teacher in the British Peace Corps, and he was well known in Khartoum, Sudan's capital, as the lead guitarist of one of the more popular local rock bands. He and his wife lived and worked for periods in Khartoum and in Boumerdes, Algeria. The couple settled in the Washington area in 1975.

Mr. Wyatt had studied the teaching of English as a second language at American University and taken courses in computer-aided instruction at the University of Washington in Seattle. He also had done postgraduate study at the University of Maryland.

He retired on disability in October from Computer Technology Services after 10 years with the organization. His work there included creation of the training used by the U.S. Department of Education for student financial grant administrators.

His avocations included gardening and sports. He had been coach for a community youth soccer team.

Survivors include his wife of 27 years, Lucy Moore Wyatt, and two sons, Hugh and Paul, all of Bethesda; and his mother, Mildred Wyatt, of Cleveleys, England.
