David 'Dave' Athans Kreis

Was thinking about Coach Kreis and how I could've used his funny sarcasm and key throwing today. You are still missed and thought of all the time. Nothing compares to sitting in the athletic training office with him, McHugh and Shubs, laughing about how to spell coach shoobs last name. He was the only teacher that believed I could actually pass math. ( I did because he made me study so I can still be in the program). My thoughts are still going out his family and his dog.

On this Thanksgiving Day holiday, I will give Thanks to have known Dave.

Dearest funniest thoughtful nephew.

Sad news. Dave was a great guy. Condolences to his family

Coach Kreis had such a great impact on me during my time as a student athletic trainer and taught me lessons that I will keep with me forever. I walked into the training room after school everyday for 4 years and he never failed to put a smile on my face (usually by throwing his keys on his infamous lanyard at me). I am so grateful to have had a mentor like him. Condolences to his friends & family.

Always a smile, a laugh, a caring and helping hand. You will be greatly missed. Thank you for all that you did for our son while he was a student-athlete at CS and the positive impact you had on so many. Our condolences to your family.

Sincerest condolences.

Words can't describe the physical loss of Dave. His humor, intelligence and laughter will be forever missed. Dave was a staple to the athletic training community and the Sandburg Wrestling program couldn't have been in better hands. I'll reflect fondly on all the Winter months he spent with us at meets and the coaches meetings held after. Peace and strength to Susie and all those hurting.
