Dave was a dedicated employee of Bradley Corp. for 27 years and truly loved his work. His love was the outdoors, hunting, fishing and most passionately, the land. Dave loved playing baseball, horseshoes and fishing with his grandson, Mason. He was a free spirit and genuinely loved life.

A celebration of David’s life was held on Saturday, March 12.

In lieu of flowers, memorials to Dave’s family are greatly appreciated.

Because organ donation was close to the family’s heart, Dave was also a generous organ and tissue donor.

Schmidt & Bartelt Funeral and Cremation Service, Menomonee Falls, is serving the family. www.schmidtandbartelt.com.

We not only lost our dad, we lost our best friend, the man who loved us more than anyone ever has or ever will.
