David participated in missionary work all over the country as well. He installed mobile homes for over 30 years and came out of retirement to work as a correctional officer. David was an absolute Jack of all trades and he could do just about anything. He could pilot, sew, knit sweaters, fix up cars, paint, and he was never afraid to try to do anything new. He was also a known to be a whiz with technology. Above all of his many talents and accomplishments, he was a very good Dad and loved his family greatly. He was the most loving and compassionate man and he would help anyone.
