He was born on April 20, 1962, in Perth Amboy, NJ, to the late Dr. John E. and Arlene K. (Boelhower) Rahoche. A lifelong resident of Sandyston Township, Dave attended Sandyston Walpack Consolidated School and graduated from Kittatinny Regional High School in 1980.
In his early career, Dave was employed by the former Hoos & Fletcher Lumber Co. in Branchville, NJ. An avid outdoorsman, he worked for various tree trimming companies and dedicated his time to the family farm, where he built stone walls, tended to the animals and enjoyed campfire evenings.
Dave had a profound love for travel, often exploring destinations in the family motorhome, including trips to Key West, Florida and Canada. Dave was a organ donor, and his legacy will continue through the lives he touched.
He is survived by his three brothers; Nicholas Rahoche (Sharon), James Rahoche and Thomas Rahoche (Erica).
