Dave was born on January 3, 1961 in Bertha to Theodore “Ted” and Mary (Simkins) Pohl.

Dave married Anna Comeau on February 29, 1980; the couple later divorced. He met and married his life companion, Jill Isvik, on March 22, 1992 in Minneapolis.  Dave started his machining career in Minneapolis and most recently worked for Lares Corporation in Cambridge for 20 years. He was a collector of many things; antique cars, motorcycles, guns, and animals. In his retirement years Dave had a goal of learning how to play the guitar and keyboard so he could jam to his classic rock songs. Dave enjoyed the great outdoors; hunting, fishing and trapping in his younger years. He was determined and an avid sportsman. Above all else he loved his family beyond words. Dave will be dearly missed by all who knew him.

He is survived by his wife, Jill, of Mora; three daughters, Melissa (Keith) Sire, Moorhead, Jamie Pohl,  Detroit Lakes and Angela (Justin) Cowden, Milaca; six grandchildren, Keith Sire, Mackenzie Hilden, Timothy Sire, Isaiah Pohl, Aiden Pohl, Autumn Hilden; two brothers, Leland “Butch” Webster and Daniel “Bonze” Pohl; three sisters, Karen (Garry) Carpenter, Rebecca (Joe) Kestner, Cynthia “Penny” (Merl) Engleking and many nieces and nephews.
