David grew up in Cedar Falls until 8th grade when the family relocated to the Quad Cities. He graduated from Pleasant Valley High School (2001) where he ran x-country and track. He then attended Loras College and graduated with a B.A. During college he worked three summers at the Bethel Horizons Lutheran camp.
Upon graduation from Loras, he moved to Madison, WI where he worked at REI as a bicycle mechanic. On Thanksgiving of 2008, he became ill and was diagnosed with brain cancer. He miraculously was able to continue life in Madison and then Ashville, N.C. He loved the outdoors-especially biking.
David was wonderful, always a blessing; one of the "good guys."

So sorry to hear of David´s death. He was born in the old neighborhood 5 months before my Kiley.
He sure was a handsome man. It sounds like he loved the outdoors.

Very sorry to hear of Dave´s death. Your family has our deepest sympathy. I remember the boys running cross-country and how that 2001 team were all such fine young men. They were all so nice and polite when they would be at our house for pasta parties and just hanging out. We will keep your family in our prayers.
