David A. Schinker of Saukville passed away unexpectedly on Monday, July 22, 2024 at the age of 61. He was born in Port Washington on February 25, 1963 to Vernon and Shirley Schinker. Dave graduated from Grafton High School in 1981.

Dave had a heart of gold. He was always willing to help others in need. He liked hunting up north by his friend Mark's cabin and was a loyal member of the Saukville Gun Club. He volunteered much of his time there, helping out wherever it was needed. Dave enjoyed playing sheepshead with his friends on weekends. He was a fan of Texas Hold'em, often watching it on T.V. and playing at local casinos. He was a Green Bay Packers fan and enjoyed ribbing his mom Shirley because she was a Vikings fan. Dave retired from Kelch Corporation in Cedarburg after many years of dedicated service.

Dave's memory will remain in the hearts of his mother Shirley, his sister Cheryl Schinker; aunts Pam (Larry) Strauss, Pauline (Mark) Masuhr, Margaret Schinker; niece Angela Foote; beloved four-legged companions Jake and Gibbs. He is further survived by other relatives and friends.

He was preceded in death by his maternal and paternal grandparents, his father Vernon, brother Keith Schinker and sister Cindy Foote.
