Dave worked for Albertson's for 40 years, and retired from Food Pyramid. He stayed close to his many co-workers. They said he was "the best boss in the world". Dave was an avid fly-fisherman, and loved going to their trailer at Roaring River, Missouri. He loved his annual fishing trip to Minnesota with his son and grandson. He helped care for his father-in-law and mother-in-law in Texas for many years. Dave was there for everyone, never met a stranger, and loved gospel singing. He loved his yard, home, the creek, birds, and excelled on working in it. He loved duck hunting with the boys. He was proud of his heritage, and proud to be an American. Dave and Sue enjoyed their annual cross country trips, the last one being in August to Vancouver, British Columbia. David cherished his family and friends. He adored his two grandsons, David and Drake. Dave was a man of great faith and integrity, which was instrumental in how he lived his life.
The family wishes to thank St. John's Hospice and Interim Health Care, and special nurse Abby, for their wondrous care and support.
Heaven has welcomed a new angel.
