Dave was born on July 14, 1951, in Fullerton, NE, to William and Jessie (Sinsel) Meyer.
He graduated from Grand Island Senior High in 1969 and attended college at Kearney State College.
He was united in marriage with Barbara (Judge) Meyer on June 22, 1974, and the couple had four children during their 48 years of marriage.
Dave worked at Chief Industries for 40+ years in many capacities, most notably as a Project Manager.
Upon retirement, Dave found his true calling in caring for his seven grandchildren, serving as Transportation Specialist in picking the grandkids up after school. He also enjoyed days on the farm working with his son-in-law.
His love of community was best seen on the baseball diamond, where he coached Little League for 28 years, and at Calvary Lutheran Church, where he worshipped and served as the church's treasurer for many years.
He was an avid sports fan and spent many years loyal to the New York Yankees, his favorite team. Dave also enjoyed bowling in leagues at both Super Bowl and Westside Lanes.
