Dave graduated from Battle Creek Central High School in 1965. After high school, Dave worked and retired from the Clark Equipment Company. He later owned and operated The Elbow Bender Lounge and most recently Images of Nature Taxidermy. He studied and earned his State and Federal license in Taxidermy through the MSU Extension.

Dave was an avid outdoorsman, enjoying hunting, fishing and trips to the Canadian Wilderness. Above everything else however, Dave was a devoted family man that loved his family especially his grandchildren and great grandchildren. They truly were the light of his life and he cherished the moments he spent with them.

Good bye Hurc, I will be joining you before long. I am really looking forward to seeing you again. David we had lives most people could only dream about. Because of your friendship and the things you taught me I did not just exist in this life but lived it to the fullest. I apologize David for being absent but I didn't, know any other way to handle it.
