David loved being in the outdoors. He loved camping and vacationing and took his family all over the United States on many adventures. Hunting and later in life golfing, were great passions in his life. Indeed, he and his wife lived on a golf course in Tucson and he was able to go golfing right up until a month before he passed. He had a great sense of humor and was quick witted, if you were not paying attention his Midwestern charm may send a clever comment right over your head.
A Celebration of Life will be held at Del Lago Golf Club, 14155 E. Via Rancho Del Lago, Vail, AZ 85641 at a future date, TBD.
In lieu of flowers, the family would like donations sent to the Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation. https://give.themmrf.org/davidandbarbara
