David retired from NEX in 2016. He loved to golf and bowl with his two older sons and spend time with all his grandsons. David loved to help his older grandchildren with their fair projects and would help set up their pens at the fair. He loved to give everyone at the fair “Hell.” David grew up on a farm and loved farming. He would spend time helping Vic Klingelhofer set up at the Five Points in DeGraff and anywhere else he was going to cater. David just had a desire to help everyone and enjoyed spending time with all his family and friends.
