With Love, Happy Father's Day Dad.
This memorial website was created in the memory of our loved one, David Mundt, 78, born on August 28, 1933 and passed away on November 23, 2011. We will remember him forever.
From Marie to David
In memory of my Partner and the love of my life. We had fifty-eight and a half wonderful years together.
He was the perfect example of a devoted family man. He loved his family; a loving husband, a proud parent and he adored his three grandkids. He loved taking care of his family. He was our protector; always just a phone call away.
Our family circle has been broken. His passing has left us so sad and lonely but his presence will always remain with us through his loving and caring spirit. He will always remain in my heart.
Thank you for a lifetime of memories. One day we will be together again.
I love you Dad and you will be forever missed. Your loving wife, Marie
In Celebration of the Life of David H. Mundt
In the bulb there is a flower,
In the seed, an apple tree,
In cocoons a hidden promise:
Butterflies will soon be free
In the cold and snow of winter
There's a spring that waits to be,
Unrevealed until its season,
Something God alone can see.
There's a song in every silence,
Seeking word and melody,
There's a dawn in every darkness,
Bringing hope to you and me.
From the past will come the future,
What it holds a mystery,
Unrevealed until its season
Something God alone can see.
In our end is our beginning,
In our time, infinity,
In our doubt there is believing,
In our life, eternity,
In our death a resurrection,
at the last a victory,
Unrevealed until its season,
Something God alone can see.
For Dad, Mom and Bubba

Just wanted you to know that you are missed and loved. Thank you for being my favorite Uncle and making each one of us feel special. Thank you for the great memories.....Love you always!
Three years have passed since you left us. I think of you daily and I am thankful of the years we had together. There are several changes for us this past year. Sweet little Rosco joined you on May 31st. What a happy reunion that must have been. He was such a sweet little dog. Brother Roy also joined you in August. He missed your long phone conversations. No more phone chats for the two of you! Your wedding band is now a gold heart that I wear on a chain around my neck. Just another way to keep you close. I miss you. I will love you always but I know you are okay. Rest in Peace Dad. Love you always, Marie
What a honor to be sharing our wedding anniversary on your birthday. You are so loved and missed. Keep that pipe and smile going until we meet again. Happy Birthday!
David, today is your 81st birthday. I cannot even imagine that. I think of you daily. I think of you being young. I think of you aging but in my eyes you never grow old. I'm thankful for all those birthdays we spent together both yours and mine. I still miss you and love you. They say love never forgets so you will never be forgotten. Love you always, Marie.
Another year, another anniversary to spend alone. I'm thankful for the 58 1/2 years we had. This will be 61 years. Still miss you and love you always, Marie
Dear David, It's been two years since you left us, but your memory and spirit are still with us. I think of you daily and miss the times we shared just enjoying the simple things in life. It was so difficult to see you go but was getting more difficult to see you stay. I find comfort knowing you are okay. Rest in Peace David. I will love you always, Marie

Dear David, Another year has passed another birthday for you. I can't believe you would be 80 years old. I think of you so often but you never grow old, always a loving husband, father and grandfather. We still miss you and love you. Rest Peacefully Dad.
Love, Marie
Hello, Dad, in the same old way
To hear your voice and see your smile
To sit with you and chat a while.
So if you have a father
Cherish him with care
For you'll never know the heartache
Till you see his vacant chair.
It has been a year and I know how much so many of us miss you. You will always be missed and loved and I am so thankful for so many great memories I have.
This day is so special in so many ways. We were blessed with sharing our wedding anniversary on your birthday. Usually every year I tell you in person when we get to the reunion, but this year I cannot. We love and miss you and think of you often. Please give all or family a hug for me. Love you lots and Happy Birthday.
And a heart that was purer than gold,
And to those who knew him and loved him
His memory will never grow cold.
Happy Father's Day Dad. I will always feel that I had the best of all dads. Love and miss you, Tracey
Love and miss you, Marie
Daid was one of the kindest men I every worked with at ExCellO then Elopak. You and the kids were always close to his heart and shared many nice stories about the family with me throughout the years. David will be missed by all who knew him.

Welcome to Texas
I remember my 1st trip to Texas driving my car out before I relocated here and all I knew was I was excited to get here. After making the drive ( only sleeping for 2 hrs) on a half way cross the country trip I ended up in Buda when I stayed with Aunt Marie & Uncle David's house for the night. I remember this night very well..... Dinner with them, stories about the family, Scott working at the Pizza place until late, nascar , but I still remember listening to Uncle David ask Marie to go for there nightly walk through the neighborhood. Seems minor then, but this was there routine and it was there thing... I remember so many other stories from back then but a simple 1st night in Texas will always stand out with me.
Our Anniversary - May 6, 2013
Dear David,
Today, May 6th, is our day - 60 years. I'm thankful we had 58 1/2 years before you had to go. They were filled with love and happiness. This year we will welcome our first great-granchild, a girl, for Joel and Valerie. In my heart I know you are okay. Your spirit remains as strong as ever. I miss you and will love you forever.
Marie
"You can shed tears that he is gone/or
you can smile because he has lived.
You can close your eyes and pray
that he'll come back/or you can open
your eyes and see all he's left.
Your heart can be empty, because you
can't see him/or you can be full of the
love you shared.
You can turn your back on tomorrow
and live yesterday/or you can be
happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.
You can remember him and only
that he's gone/or you can cherish his
memory and let it live on.
You can cry and close your mind, be
empty and turn your back/or you can
do what he'd want: smile, open your
eyes, love and go on."

Remembering You One year Later
You left us one year ago today, November 23rd. Some say it doesn't seem possible you have been gone that long. To me, it seems like forever. We watched those last few weeks as your body grew weaker and all quality of life slipped away. It was so hard, but we knew it was time to say our goodbyes and let you go.
You left us with some remarkable memories. I have made progress moving forward by going back in time and remembering the beginning of our life together as well as the end. We speak of you almost daily; always with loving thoughts. Some memories bring tears and some bring smiles. You will never be forgotten. You will always remain in my heart. I still miss you and will always love you.
Your partner in life, Marie
