He was drafted on September 28, 1972 and proudly served as an Armor Recon Specialist, stationed in Germany during the Vietnam War. He was honorably discharged in September of 1978. David loved to be outdoors fishing, water skiing, kayaking, and dove hunting with his beloved Weimaraner. He was also an avid football fan, occasionally known to place a bet or two on those games. David married the love of his life, Susie Chambers, on March 21, 1999. Their unwavering love for one another was a true inspiration. They faced many challenges in their life, but always faced them together. They enjoyed life’s simple pleasures to the fullest and delighted in spoiling their fur babies Penny and Cali.
