Following high school, he proudly enlisted in the U.S. Marines entering service on July 11, 1961. He served in 1st Force Reconnaissance during the Vietnam War and was honorably discharged with medals in 1971 due to battle wounds in the rank of captain.

He regularly donated to Disabled Veterans, Toys for Tots and St. Jude Children's Hospital.

He was a long-haul truck driver and of all the places he has lived in and drove to, he chose the peaceful quiet of Bancroft, Idaho to retire to.  He really loved his neighbors and community and served them tirelessly in any way he could.  David was a loving and care-giving husband who found joy in telling jokes and spirited conversations.

He enjoyed gunsmithing, brick masonry, fishing and hunting.  He was an avid reader and grew a lovely flower and vegetable garden each year.  He also liked rabbit hunting with his beagles.  He raised and sold AKC prize winning beagle puppies.
