Dave was born on December 26th, 1958, to Elizabeth and Wayne Konz in Sioux City Iowa. He graduated from Bishop Heelan High school in 1977. At the age of 16, Dave first began his long career as a grocer- initially starting at the Piggly Wiggly. His career as a grocer would span over 45 years, including time at Boulevard and HyVee. The relationships he developed in his line of work meant everything to him, and he often considered his co-workers as an extension of his family. 

Dave was an avid golfer and spent many summers at the Green Valley Golf Course. He loved to travel; especially to Cancun with his family. Dave was known by all for his quick wit, incredible sense of humor, and the easy-going nature he brought into any room he entered. He was a kind, loving man, and cherished the time he spent with his friends and family. 

Dave is survived by his daughter Elizabeth (Ryan) Kost and his grandson Benjamin; his father and step-mother, Wayne & Judy Konz; his sister Linda (Ted) Wallendorf and their children Joshua (Holly) Wallendorf, Valinda (Jacob) Washington, Jennifer Wallendorf, and David (Jennevy) Wallendorf; along with many great nieces and nephews. 

Dave was preceded in death by his mother, Elizabeth, and his two sons, Andrew and Benjamin.

He will be greatly missed.
