David Chisholm Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Sandberg Funeral & Cremation Services on Feb. 3, 2026.
David John Chisholm, 43, of Maplewood passed away 1/31/26. Visitation will be held at 10AM with Funeral service at 11AM Monday 2/16/26 at Sandberg Funeral and Cremation Services. Burial will follow in the Evergreen Cemetery.

David was born in St Paul, Minnesota on July 27, 1982 at the hospital his grandma Rita worked at.

David worked in armed Security in Minnesota and then Reno, Nevada.

David loved sports and played many including hockey, football and baseball.

He loved history and would watch documentaries and was always researching more information. He would send recommendations to others on programs he thought they would enjoy. Especially his parents.

Music was always part his life. From singing with his mom, to playing drums and guitar, to running sound systems, music was a love of his. He even wrote a few songs of his own.

He loved animals and was especially drawn to kids.

He is survived by his parents Jack Chisholm and Debra Krech who will miss him greatly, as well as several aunts, uncles and cousins as well as those who were his family by choice.

Preceded in death by paternal grandparents John Chisholm and Virginia Chisholm (nee Lee). Maternal grandparents Seymour Brown and Rita Brown (nee Jossart).

David was kind, had a great sense of humor and always looked out for the underdog and loved to tease those he cared about.

His faith in Jesus was important to him and even in the hard times he looked to his faith to give him strength. He never turned his back on it even when he was struggling.

He will be sorely missed by many who love him deeply.
