Dave grew up in the Ludington area where he attended Pine View, Woodland Valley and Bluff Country Schools. As a young man he left home to work on various farms in the Chippewa area. After his retirement he had lived at the Northern Hotel and Rutledge Home in Chippewa Falls, before moving in July of 2012 to Country Terrace in Bloomer. Through the years Dave loved working puzzles, listening to country music and watching westerns. While at the Rutledge Home you could find him every night watching All Star Wrestling. He also enjoyed when he was visited by animals and children, and especially the kind friendship of Rutledge employee, Sandy Rasmussen of Chippewa Falls.
