Bemboom, 74, who passed away at his daughter's residence on Tuesday surrounded by his loving family. Rev.

David Henry Bemboom was born on May 17, 1945 in Mayhew Lake Township to Louis G. and Marie (Grundhoefer) Bemboom. He served his country in the United States Army during the Vietnam War. David married Lorraine Schultz on June 10, 1967 at St. Anthony's Catholic Church in St. Cloud. He worked as a truck driver for Hardrives Inc for many years. David enjoyed traveling with family, daily trips to McDonald's for coffee and socializing with family and friends. He loved listening to country music (making up his own lyrics), watching Walker Texas Ranger, and being an all-around practical joker. His laugh was infectious and he cared deeply for everyone involved in his life, praying for them daily and never worrying about himself. He was very honored to serve our country and wanted to make sure everyone knew it. He would wear his Vietnam hat everywhere he went in hopes of someone telling him, "Thank you for your service."
Survivors include his son, Bradley of New York, NY; daughter, Lisa (Chris Jones) of Wheeling, IL; brothers and sisters, Louis Jr. (Mary Jane) of Lindsey, CA, Kathy Gummert of Sauk Rapids, John (Barb) of Sauk Rapids, Mary Ann of Rice, Suzanne (Rory) Thompson of Rice, Patricia (Mike) Schultz of St. Stephen, Stephen (Jean) of Foley, and Randy (Kristi) of Milaca; grandchildren, Crystal and Cody Jones, and grand dogs Dexter, Otis, and Matilda. He was preceded in death by his parents; and wife, Lorraine in 2018.

Even after all these years Dave, I still remember you. You and Gary were the two best friends I ever had. Without you and Gary I don't think I would have made it through Viet Nam. Cu Chi, Viet Nam 1966-1967

Dear Lisa and Brad We sure miss David. You were blessed to have a wonderful Dad and Mom. We speak of David often and remember his laugh. When returning to MN we always had Dave and Lorraine on our list of "must see" people enjoying many hours eating and visiting at Old Country Buffet or Bonanza. Sometimes we just dropped into their apartment for a visit. Such good memories. We miss "207"! What a guy! We wish you many fond memories and would love to keep in touch. Annette and Junior

"From the Brausen Family, we send our very deepest sympathy. Always enjoyed being with the Bemboom family, at their place! We went there a lot when I was a young child!" Dad and Louie loved playing cards!'

Dear Brad & Lisa, Our deepest sympathy in the loss of your Dad. David was a fine person and we sure enjoyed visiting with him on the phone. If we weren't home, he'd leave a message. "Hi Junior, this is 207!" His nickname because of the truck he drove at Hardrives. We are really going to miss "207"! May your fond memories bring you peace. Junior and Annette

I'm so sorry to hear of your loved and deepest condolences are extended to you. Something that's helped me through the death of loved ones is to reflect on 1 Corinthians 15:26.
