Schwartz, Ralph “David” (7 SEP 1949 - 4 JUN 2019)

Ralph “David” Schwartz, 69, of Medford, passed away on June 4, 2019 at Aspirus Wausau Hospital with his loving wife Mary and children by his side.

He drove truck for McKay Nursery and Duckert Pallet in Waterloo. David moved north to Medford in 1992 and drove truck for Weather Shield until health forced his retirement in 2007.

David brought joy to everybody who knew him, especially his family. He had a love of hunting, fishing, and helping with hunter safety. He enjoyed trapshooting, earning many trophies, fishing in Canada, and salmon fishing in Lake Michigan. Above all else he had a great love for his family.

David is survived by Mary, his wife of 40 years; daughters, Tammy (Steve) Belanger, Theresa (Doug) Ulam, and Dawn Joles; son, James (Patty) Grueneberg; grandchildren, Nick, Chris, Brittany, Justin, Matt, Samantha, Ann-Mari, Trinity, and great grand-grandchildren.
