On July 20, 1973, David was united in marriage at St. Joseph Catholic Church in Devils Lake to Mary Schottenbauer of Clyde, ND. They moved to Warwick ND to start farming in 1977, where they lived, farmed and raised shorthorn cattle while working a full time job in Devils Lake. David just recently became a member of the Knights of Columbus.

In the last 16 days of his life, David was able to visit with family and friends. He drove around with his side by side to check on cattle and the progress of the haying operation by his sons.
