A Celebration of Life and potluck will take place Saturday, November 15th from 12 to 6 pm at 3021 4th Avenue NW in Great Falls. David was born in Great Falls September 5, 1961 and was a lifelong resident. He graduated from C.M.R. in 1979, and worked as a laborer for most of his life. David enjoyed road trips, music and working on anything with a motor and tires, but his passion and joys came from his family and friends. David is survived by his sisters, Jan E. (Don) Wright of Cheyenne WY and Mary Lynn Clevinger of Great Falls; brother Larry B. Mader of Great Falls; 18 nieces and nephews; 34 great nieces and nephews; and several great-great nieces and nephews.
