David also shared a close bond with his siblings, Val (Bill) Warneke and Dan Hoalt. Their shared experiences and memories are a testament to the love that bound the Hoalt family together.

He was preceded in death by his cherished wife, Carol J. Hoalt, whose memory he held dear throughout his life. Their love story is one that will be remembered and celebrated by all who knew them.

David H. Hoalt will be deeply missed but lovingly remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing him. His legacy of love, humor, and camaraderie will continue to inspire those he leaves behind.
