David Giersch Obituary
He is survived by his daughter Erin Matheson (Geoff Matheson); grandsons Blake and Charlie Matheson all of Australia; Shannon Alexander (Jay Alexander) of St. Louis. He is also survived by his brother John Giersch of TN, and sister Linda Gutierrez of FL.
Dave found the most joy with the simple things in life. Dave loved to fish, listen to the birds sing, and sit by the fire taking in all of what nature has to offer. Dave took pride in his garden and keeping his yard looking pristine. Dave had a love for music, and taught himself how to play the guitar.
Dave loved his "Musky" and "Bo" as he often called his daughters by their nicknames with the biggest smile on his face.

I remember Dave as the little brother of my good friend Linda. I'd see him at her house when I'd come by. And I remember talking to him later when he was in high school. I always liked him and felt he was a good kid. God Bless his soul.

Dave or Tex, or T-bone as he was known was my brother. We didnt always see eye to eye but thats ok, he was my brother. He lived his life his way and no one or anything was going to change that. He enjoyed his time outdoors fishing, planting garden or just going on a morning walk. I know he loved his girls and would always get a big smile whenever you would ask about them.
I know he is looking down from the heavens and still smiling on them and his grandsons and doing his best to cover them all with a loving hand to protect them. Eat a peach brother
