David graduated from Perry Meridian High School and studied welding at Ivy Tech. Armed with a strong work ethic, determination, and intelligence, he worked at Mechanics Laundry for several years before becoming employed at Eli Lilly & Company. He continued working at Lilly through contract work with Johnson Controls and CBRE as coordinating engineer. David’s talent can be seen throughout the Lilly Corporate Center and many of the various Lilly laboratories.
He was a member of St. Thomas More Catholic Church. David was drawn to just about anything with a motor on in it including cars, trucks, boats, and tractors. He loved muscle cars, MOPAR, John Deere Tractors, and will be remembered as the personal mechanic for many. Family memories were created at Lake Lemon where David enjoyed slalom skiing, teaching his children to ski, and many hours fishing.

In addition to his father, he was preceded in death by a grandson, Logan Howard.
