David Lindblad Obituary
David Lindblad, 47, of Camarillo died tragically on Saturday, March 29, 2008, in an auto accident on Highway 101.
He is survived by his wife, Margaret, and his children, Ryan, Krystal, Matthew, Marissa and Dean; mother, Joanne Adsett and sisters, Ann Lozano and Lori Lindblad; sisters-in-law, Dawn and Jeanie; brothers-in-law, Rocky, Tim and Tony; nieces and nephews, Jennifer, Michael, Tyler, Hailey, Lloyd, Dylan, Zachary, Nicholas, Rory, Hailea and Courtney.
Born Aug. 4, 1960, in Willmar, Minn., he moved in 1969 to Ventura County, where he completed his schooling and started work in the construction business. He started his own successful drywall business in 1985. He constantly talked about his many loyal and hardworking employees who continually made him proud. He was very active with his children's roller hockey, coaching teams for more than 13 years. His humor and desire for the kids to have fun while playing made him a popular coach. His most recent enjoyment came from watching his daughter, Marissa, play softball for the Camarillo Scorpions, his son, Dean, play basketball and watching his older children, Ryan, Krystal and Matthew, growing up into the adults they were meant to be. He was a great fan of football and basketball, following the Rams and Lakers every season. He loved to walk his dog Rex, fly his pigeons and ride his Harley. He was a strong man with a big heart. David was well loved and will be greatly missed by his family and friends.
A service will be held at 10 a.m. Friday, April 4, at Conejo Mountain Memorial Park.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the David Lindblad Children's Trust at Washington Mutual Bank.
Arrangements are under the direction of Conejo Mountain Memorial Park and Funeral Home, 2052 Howard Road; phone 805-482-1959.

David..It's almost been a year and a half since you left us and I still have your phone number in my phone. I remember the day after you passed and I was driving my truck when my phone rang and your name came up on my screen. It was Margaret of course but for a second I thought...maybe everything was just a dream and you were still with us. I just wanted to say Happy 49th Birthday and tell you that you are very missed by all of us.

Im stunned. Its been 25 + years since i saw him last.Never even cosidered anything would take dave away except possibly old age. David was a real individual. He followed his own lead ,he taught me alot about being who you were and not who others expected you to be.I was watching game 5 of the lakers series tonite against the nuggets and he popped into my head . True lakers fan and great friend. I will kick myself for not calling many years sooner.My deepest sympathy to his wife,children,family and all who knew and lost a true friend.

Margeret and all of David's family, I just this past week learned of his passing, and want to extend my deepest sympathy and sadness for your loss. David was a good man and a great friend. I went to high school with David and Lori, and my husband Danny Santoyo was the reason for ''David the Drywaller". I have some pictures of their early drywall days together and would love to share their past with you. We had a lot of adventures and some great times and I am very sad none of my 4 sons will get the chance to know their dad through David's eyes. Please know he left behind a great legacy in all of you... I can only imagine what's being framed, nailed and hung in heaven...:-) Please know my thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

Tomorrow will be a year since we lost you, in some ways it seems like eternity. Not a day goes by that we don’t think of you & what an impact you’ve had on our lives. You were always funny and a joy to be around. We all miss you so. It still feels like a part of me is missing. Tomorrow will be a day for prayer for you and your family.

Son,
The Holidays are here and we are missing you so much. I remember our family Christmas last year. So many memories. I look at those photos often. We had such a wonderful time together. Every time I watch football I remember all the good talks we would have over our teams. We will all be together this Christmas and will tell all the funny stories, remembering the good times

Well it is ont of those days where I can't stop thinking about you and can't stop crying. I miss you so much. Your contagious laugh is what i miss so much. Basketball is starting and I can't help but think about you more and more. GO LAKERS! Miss you and love you so much. Wish I could hear your laugh right now...

Dad,
It is about to be six months without you, and not a day goes by that I dont think about you. I still think that when I wake up you will be downstairs drinking your cofee. Its so hard living without you and I cant even explain how much I miss you. I always try to think about all the good times we had. We pretty much spent every weekend together at the rollerdome playing hockey. I remember one time when we had a seven am game and on the way up me and you were making rhymes that made no sense at all but it was our thing. We were laughing so hard that you spilled your cofee and we had to pull over. I will never forget these times. I love you so much dad.

I sometimes come here to read how much people loved and miss David and I am really hoping you sometimes do the same. It will give you strength. I miss him more than I can ever tell you. Continue to be strong for the kids and it will get easier. I know David is so proud of you.
David,
I know that you are watching over your family and if it is not to much to ask, if you could just pop in on us every once in awhile it would mean a lot. We love and miss you! Diamond Dawn (aka The Iron Fist)

All of you who spoke at my brothers service let me know how important it is to stand up and talk about someone...if you are able. It means so much to the family.

It was so nice to hear stories about you from other people whose life you touched. Everyone knew where they stood with you and you always told it like it is whether we wanted to hear it or not. David I'm really going to miss you, its terrible that we don't say things to each other till its too late, but you were loved and respected. You'd be so proud of Margaret and how she has stepped up during this time but of course you knew she would. You will always be in my thoughts and I'm so glad you came into our lives.

To all touched by David Lindblad,
Our family met the Lindblad Family when they first moved to California – they were our close neighbors, playmates, and friends - and quickly became our extended family. I believe our family introduced tortillas to the Lindblads! Our families grew up together. Memories of David are so vivid – such a vivacious and handsome young boy …
Memories of walking to school together when we were children – what an adventure. Later in life, we all pursued our dreams and despite not seeing David since we were young teenagers, we have many fond memories.
Our heartfelt sympathy and prayers to our long time neighbors, Joanne, Lori, Ann and all of David's loved ones.
David will always be watching over those he loved.
The Soliz Family (Jess, Isabel, Jess Jr., Chris, Geri, Phillip and Marty).

Dear Margaret and family,
I am so sorry for your loss. Although I didn't get to know David, I learned a lot about him from those who spoke at the funeral. What a beautiful tribute to David. You and your family can be proud and know that many people live a long life but not many have made a mark in this world that David made, especially in such a short llife span. My condolences to all of you and to the many family members.

Thank you to everyone who spoke at the service. That was an amazing gift at a time in need

To my family,
Our deepest sympathy to all of you. I sat here in Minnesota after hearing of the news about David and thought how sad that I didn't even know my own first cousin. But after reading all the entries in this guest book, I realize that David must have been an amazing person. How proud you all must be to have been able to call David your son, brother, father, husband and friend. I truly regret now that I didn't have the privilege of knowing him.
To my family, Jo, Lori and Ann and your families, I love you, I feel your pain and I will continue to pray for you. To Margaret and your children, remember you have family that loves you and we will be continually praying for you. May you find the peace you need to get you through this difficult time.
All our love,
Bonnie, Gary and families

Margaret, Dawn, & Kids,
David was such a great guy and father with a wonderful sense of humor. Our boys will always remember him playing pool at your house with them and hearing him say that they aren't considered men until they have hair under their arms! I hope others share their 'Davidisms' with you guys often to always keep his memory alive and remind you of the impact he made on others as a husband, father, coach, boss, and friend.
We're sorry for such a tragic event and loss to happen to your wonderful family.
Love,
Tim, Sharon, Brandon & Johnny Francis

Margret, Matt & all the kids,
I was greatly saddened to hear yesterday of Dave's passing. Although I hadn't seen him since our Roller Dome days I still do and always will have a spot in my heart for him - as will Tyler & Cameron. Dave was Cam's 1st coach when he was 5 years old. Cam turns 17 tomorrow. Dave taught me how to coach, how to inspire the kids to do their best and still have fun. I will always remember Dave standing out on the floor at the Roller Dome in his shorts and workboots with a hockey stick in his hands yelling at the kids to skate, skate, skate! One measure of the man is how many kids and parents were touched by him and loved him. I will always be grateful to Dave for being my friend and mentor. God bless you and help you through this sad, sad time.

I knew David only professionally for the past year or so. David was a generous and kind soul. David spoke of his children often with such pride and great joy. David also cared about his employees as if he were personally responsible for their well being. I mourn with his family for the loss of a great father, son & brother; with his employees for the loss of a great employer and for the community who suffered the loss of a great man. David left an indelible mark on all of our lives and will forever be missed. May God keep the Lindblad family in the palm of His hand through this time of great loss.

David: A provider, a protecter, a guide, and a father. Thank you David for accepting and receiving me into your family. Thank you for Krystal and Jennifer. Life is so much more with them. You raised me like I was your own daughter without anyone telling you to. You always taught me to do right and work hard. You shaped me for the rest of my life and you left a legacy. I will miss you, but Im comforted knowing that you are with your Heavenly Father. You are fully convinced now of His love for you, and embraced in His arms. Thank you God for David, and all the life he brought to all of us. I love you David...Ill see you later! :)
