His career brought him all over the Midwest, living in Iowa, Nebraska, South Dakota, Illinois & Missouri. He served on the Board of Directors & was a store director for 18 of his years with the company. Dave retired in 2014 & moved to TX to be closer to his ‘princess’ Hannah. He loved spending time on his patio & pool, and daily chats with “Papa” in his prayer chair. Dave was the life of the party, loved to tease those he loved & will be greatly missed by many.
