They then made their home in Edmond, Oklahoma and later moved back to Fort Supply before residing outside of Fargo.
David worked as a Production Foreman in the oil and gas industry, and was highly respected for his knowledge and skills, as well as his hard work ethic.

His kindness, warmth, and genuine care for others left a lasting impact on everyone he met. He enjoyed watching OSU Football and he and Susan were season ticket holders for many years.
