His illness began earlier that summer and he had sinking spells, but again recovered sufficiently to be out of the house at times. He was taken to Lock Haven hospital several weeks prior to his death and after treatment improved such that everyone believed he was restored to his usual good health. He was survived by his current (i.e. second) wife and three children: T. Mark Brungard, Edward Given Brungard and Edward Brungard by a former marriage. He is also survived by a son, Eldon Brungart, who is the child from their current marriage. David was affiliated with the First United Evangelical church in Lock Haven, Clinton county, Pennsylvania.
