David was born May 4, 1962, in Iowa City, Iowa, to Ralph and Clarissa Beltz (Davidson). He met his longtime sweetheart of 19 years, Roberta Bradish when they were only teenagers. David walked like he had not a care in the world, but those close to him knew he had a big heart. He would give you the shirt off his back if he could. His quick wit and sense of humor would always brighten even the cloudiest days. He will definitely be missed by many.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to the family.
