David is survived by his wife, Renee Klinger; daughter, Katey Klinger; brothers, Paul Klinger, Allan Klinger; sister, Billie Johnson and several nieces and nephews.
David was a man who lived life at full throttle, fueled by a deep devotion to his family, friends and four-legged companions. He passed away leaving behind a legacy of loyalty and a garage full of stories. He had an unmatched passion for cars and lived for the freedom of the open road. David’s life was meant to be lived outdoors whether he was navigating rugged trails, setting up camp under the stars, or trekking through the woods for a round of disc golf, he embraced the wild side of life to the fullest. On calmer days you could find him on his boat, finding peace on the water or hosting a backyard barbeque with his friends. David’s presence was one of a kind, and he made a lasting impression on everyone he came in contact with. He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
A Celebration of Life Service will be conducted at 2:00 pm on Thursday, May 14, 2026, in the chapel of Owen Funeral Home with Rev. Seth Bunch officiating. The family will receive friends on Thursday from 12:00 pm until 2:00 pm.
