December 15th, 2020. Dave will be remembered by his son, Robert, mother, Doris, and sisters, Dawn Alexander and Robin Krakauer. Dave is further survived by his loving nieces and nephews, Brad Alexander, Lindsey Berger, Kelsey Krakauer and AJ Krakauer.

Dave was always in service of his community as a young Marine and later as a Milwaukee Police Officer. After retirement, Dave renewed his passion in the Ironman Triathlon community, of which he placed 3rd in the first Ironman in 1978. Dave enjoyed traveling to and celebrating triathletes around the world. Dave would be honored by the outpouring of love from everyone that is involved with the sport.
