He was a long time resident of both Clio and Flint before moving with Helen to Albuquerque, New Mexico in 2004. David was an enthusiastic sports fan, especially those involving his sons. He was a die hard Detroit Tigers fan, even while living in New Mexico, and a life long University of Michigan fan. David was also passionate about animals and dearly loved his two golden retrievers, Katie and Gordie. Since moving to New Mexico, David treasured his annual trips back to Michigan to see friends and family, to travel throughout Northern Michigan, and visit local casinos, too.

Helen and family, sorry to hear about Dave. It has been many years since we had seen each other. I knew Dave from when we were young kids. Dave's Grandmother Ada lived next to my Grandparents. I would also see him at Mike's baseball games. I'm sure that the three of us tossed a baseball a few times.
