He was never afraid to embark on a new adventure. He loved playing video games, traveling, hunting, collecting an assortment of things, antiquing, taking pictures, arrowhead hunting, and taking his beloved dog, Maggie, everywhere. He loved to play pranks on people, and usually cracked himself up while doing so. Dave loved to work with his hands, being very creative. He was also not afraid to tackle any jobeveryone seemed to call him when there was anything that needed to be fixed. He was never concerned with the material things that life had to offer. He seemed to always know that family was the most important. If anyone knew Dave Neumann, they would know how much he loved his kids. He bragged on them to any and everyone. Above all else, he knew and loved the Lord. We will miss him greatly and cannot wait to see him again. He left us too soon. Dave was preceded in death by his father, Eugene Neumann; his Grandma, Lucila Neumann and his Nonna, Narcisa Franceschi. He is survived by his three children, Ashley, Grant and Tanner, and his mother, Rose Neumann.
