Obituary - David Duane Foland

A devoted son, husband, and father, Dave is survived by his best friend and wife, Kay, of 56 years, his loving children daughter Erin Peterson, and son and daughter-in-law, Tim and Lynne Foland, and our sweetest grandson, Brody.

David was born in Nevada, Missouri, on August 25, 1938, to Lois Gretelle Rinehart Foland and John Elbert Foland. In 1956, he graduated from Nevada High School. He attended the University of Missouri. He received a degree in installment credit at the University of Oklahoma and in 1974, in banking from the University of Nebraska.

With a zest for life, Dave had boundless energy, and an ever-contagious smile. He enjoyed playing golf, farming, riding horses, and making his “secret” fudge recipe while watching the Kansas City Chiefs. David was a life-long member of the First Christian Church.

He will always live in the hearts of those he touched, for nothing loved is ever lost and he is loved very much.
