      David Lynn Yahr
      Died July 12, 1999
      TRAVERSE CITY - David Lynn Yahr, 15, woke up Monday at his home to his 
Savior, Jesus Christ, due to natural causes.
      Born Feb. 20, 1984, in Traverse City, he was the son of Philip Dale and 
Sharon Kay (Barr) Yahr.
      His family has lost a wonderful son and brother but it is heaven's gain. 
He brought joy to their hearts and they will treasure every memory they have of 
him forever. They do not ask themselves why or how, just trust in knowing that 
while David walked on earth, he walked with Jesus by his side.
      To every thing there is a season,
      and a time to every purpose
      under the heaven.
      Ecclesiastics 3.1
      Even in death, Dave was a witness to others. People looked up to him and 
trusted him. His peers at school recognized that Dave had inner strength not 
his own. He had so many talents and gave them freely to everyone whether it was 
playing drums in church, being captain of his hockey team or playing on the 
junior varisity tennis team at Traverse City West Senior High School where he 
was to be a sophmore. Dave excelled at them all. He was also a member of the 
Bayview Wesleyan Church youth group. His friendly and outgoing personality made 
him a favorite of his teachers and youth group. He lived every moment to the 
fullest. There was nothing he couldn't do. What will his family do without 
their Davey?
      He is survived by his parents of Traverse City; sister, Lisa Yahr, at 
home; paternal grandparents, Marion and June Yahr of Traverse City; and several 
aunts, uncles and cousins.
      He was preceded in death by his maternal grandparents, Lynn and Doris 
Barr, and two cousins.
      Friends may call from 2 to 4 p.m. and 6 to 8 p.m. Thursday at Reynolds-
Jonkhoff Funeral Home in Traverse City. Funeral services will be held at 1 p.m. 
Friday at Bayview Wesleyan Church where friends may call one hour prior to the 
service. Pastor Jack Steenbergh and Pastor Brian Jones will officiate. 
Graveside services will be held at 3:30 p.m. Friday at Lynwood Cemetery in Long 
Lake Township.
      Memorial contributions may be directed to Bayview Wesleyan Church Youth 
Group.
      Written by David's sister, Lisa.
