He also was a very important part of fundraising for his son’s charity golf outing for 20 years. He continued playing baseball and softball recreationally after college and coached baseball as well. David was extremely passionate about the University of Michigan especially Michigan football. He had season tickets for many years and was a member of the M Club, attending regular luncheons.
