He grew up in Richland and Benton City and graduated from Kiona-Benton High School in 1966. He earned his BA degree in business management from Eastern Washington University and he honorably served in the U.S. Air Force. He was very proud and happy to have served.

He worked for many years at Hanford and he loved pinochle, cribbage, chess, all sports and the ocean.

We would like to send a million thanks to Drs. Mroch, Hough and Waggoner for the great care they gave Dave. Also many thanks to Debbie and Amy at the dialysis center.

Dave is survived by his wife Fran, son Nick and daughter-in-law Alex; brother Ron and wife CC; Jeff and wife Kara as well as his nieces, nephews, brothers and sisters-in-law. Dave was preceded in death by his folks and brother, Don.

A graveside service with military honors will be held at Spokane-Cheney Memorial Gardens, 12:30 p.m., Saturday, July 31. Dave fought a very long and hard battle with diabetes and kidney disease. Please donate for a cure.
