Dave was born September 23, 1960, in Salt Lake City, Utah, to Ernest L. and Mary Anne English Ward. When David was 5 years old, he and his family moved to Washington State. He was educated in Coulee City, Washington schools. Following graduation Dave served an L.D.S. mission in the Texas – Dallas Mission from 1981 to 1983.

He was employed by NuSkin Corporation as a Facilities Manager for the past 25 years. Dave and his wife Jennifer were best friends and enjoyed being together, travelling, cooking and doing things with the children. He had many talents and interests. He enjoyed the out of doors, especially fishing, hunting and camping. His favorite fishing companions were his son, T.R. (Taylor) and his daughter, Becca. The family enjoyed camping. Their trips to Washington always included visiting family and fishing at his favorite fishing spots. Mile marker 15 and the “arm” were special places for Dave, T.R. and Becca to fish. He drew a special permit for the Elk hunt of his life in Monroe, Utah. He bagged a 360 bull. Dave also enjoyed writing and was planning to write stories about his outdoor adventures and family. He was a compassionate, giving man, always concerned about others and willing to help and teach them skills they could use in their own lives, especially fishing.
