David N. Posey, 53, Suamico died unexpectedly Friday, Jan. 6, 2012. He was born Nov. 25, 1958, in Green Bay to Neil A. and Norma Jane (Aerts) Posey. David graduated from Southwest High School in 1977. He enjoyed the outdoors, especially hunting, fishing and boating. He was also an accomplished taxidermist. David was a good person.

He was preceded in death by his father, Neil Posey; his paternal grandfather, Dwight Posey; and his maternal grandparents, Norman and Hazel Aerts.

Friends may call at St. Benedict Catholic Church, 3370 Deerfield Rd. West, Suamico, from 9:30 to 11 a.m. Thursday.

Aunt Norma, Danny, Barb & Beth,
I wish so much that I could be there with you to say an earthly goodbye. David was a kind spirit, and now he's most likely catching up on some fishing and hunting with his dad in heaven. We're sending you, and all who were close to him, love and prayers to comfort you.

With Much Love,
The Ollenburg's
Heather, Andy, Lelia, Hogan & Kalena
