About this fundraiser

David Speck (Kellogg) was a man who enjoyed fishing, camping, mudding, or working on cars. If he wasn't outside you would find him watching John Wayne movies or old westerns. Since 2005 David had struggles with his health, leading to him not being himself over the last nine and a half years. In 2016 David suffered a major stroke that required him to move to a nursing home, needing 24 hour care and assistance. 

On January 28th, 2026 David suffered a series of strokes and seizures requiring him to have emergency brain surgery to remove the clots. He was in a coma until the early afternoon of January 30th when he was responsive enough to squeeze the hands of his loved ones. 

Unfortunately at 8:15pm on January 30th, David was accepted into the arms of his heavenly loved ones. He is mourned by three adult children Kris, Cheyenne, and MacKenzie, nine grandkids, his parents, siblings, and many nieces and nephews. Due to his health decline he was unable to work, have savings, or have a life insurance policy. 

We ask for help in these difficult times to help our family cover his funeral home services, burial plot, and casket. 

Thank you for any and all donations.
