He was a former President of the Iowa City West High Club West Booster Club. He also served on the boards of the Iowa City Booster Club and Good Shepherd Center Pre-School in Iowa City. Dave enjoyed and worked hard in his career, but he also lived life with zest and passion. His family, especially his two sons brought him so much love and joy.

Dave was a sports fan at all levels. He was a Green Bay Packers, Milwaukee Bucks, Milwaukee Brewers and Iowa Hawkeye fan. He also loved to cook and enjoyed reading and fishing. He caught over 60 different species of fish, the largest of which was an 8-foot nurse shark in the Gulf of Mexico. He also had a wonderful sense of humor which was uniquely “Dave”.
