David W. Rufkahr

David W. Rufkahr of Saint Louis, Missouri, on Saturday December 16, 2017, at the age of 52. Beloved husband of Susan Rufkahr; cherished son of Irvin Rufkahr and the late Belle Rufkahr; devoted stepfather of Carolyn (Ron) Neal, and Mark Ellebracht; loving grandfather of Johnathon Graves, Trey Neal, and Justice Neal; treasured great-grandfather of Evelyn; and dear brother of Paula (Steve) Collins, Michael (Pamela) Rufkahr, Richard Rufkahr, and Phillip Rufkahr.

David enjoyed music, singing, and playing guitar, and was a former member of the Patt Holt Singers. He also enjoyed gardening, barbequing, and had a great sense of humor. Most of all however, he loved spending time with his family, and will be remembered as a loving husband, son, step-father, grandfather, great grandfather, brother, uncle, and friend to many. David was dearly loved and will be missed by all who knew him, including his precious dog, Maya.
