David was the youngest child of Olga and Budd Lundgren. He was born in Langenburg Saskatchewan, grew up with siblings Keith and Skyla on the family farm at Marchwell Saskatchewan.
He attended Marchwell school, then completed high school at Langenburg. After grade 12, he attended a year at University of Saskatchewan, Faculty of Agriculture, Calgary technical school, and worked for a brief time on the oil rigs at Brooks Alberta. He returned to the home community, worked at the local potash mines, in various capacities including “cage” operator and farmed. Gradually, he and his brother Keith took over more of the farming from their Dad. He retired from farmer owner to farmer “hired help” in the fall of 2025. He was looking forward to the role of seasonal worker with his nephew, Ryan.
David took on the role of partner to Donna and step dad to her three children, Corey, Nick and Megan Schmidt He immensely enjoyed all of his family and extended family the grandchildren, nieces, nephews and great nieces and great nephews. He made many miles travelling to hockey, ball, football, dance recitals, and school activities. He stayed involved especially after the unexpected passing of Donna in 2019.
Although he wouldn’t have described himself as a care giver, he was. He was always checking on his Dad, the families, and friends. (Including the farm cats)
