David Alan Krog
March 11, 1952 ~ February 8, 2013
David Alan Krog, age 60, passed away on February 8, 2013 in Seguin, Texas after a brief struggle with cancer.
David was born March 6, 1952 in Miller, South Dakota. He was the son of Dale C. Krog and Beverly Joan (Johnson) Krog. David was a 1970 graduate of Chamberlain High School in Chamberlain, South Dakota, then went on to serve in the U.S. Army where he met his wife Sherry during basic training. They spent their lives together in Gillette where he was a truck pusher for Getter Trucking. After losing his wife Sherry to cancer David relocated to California. There he met and married his second wife Caryn, and worked in construction while enjoying the beautiful San Diego weather. After 12 good years of marriage David and Caryn parted ways and he moved to Seguin, Texas to be near his eldest daughter and her husband. He enjoyed spending time with family, friends, and most importantly his grandkids. He loved the Denver Broncos, San Diego Padres, and Nascar Racing.
In addition to his mother, David is survived by his two daughters, Chrystal Lucas and her husband, Scott of Seguin, Texas and Michelle Muffley and her husband Ryan of Peachtree City, Georgia; 6 grandchildren, Kristen Lucas Vecera and her husband Trent of Seguin, Texas, Olivia (10), Isaac (7), Eli (5), and Andrew Muffley (2); 2 great-grandchildren Brody (3) and Brynnlee (6 months) Vecera; sister Betty Champlin and her husband John of Gillette, Wyoming; nieces Kimberly Bay of Cheyenne, Wyoming, Stacy Marroquin of Lawton, Oklahoma; nephew Joseph Duff and his wife Leticia of Hawaii and numerous other loving family members and friends. He was preceded in death by his wife Sherry, granddaughter Madison, and dad Dale.
David will be remembered as a loving father, a loyal friend, and a generous man. He was well loved and will be missed by his family, his many friends in California, and the few special ones he came to know in Texas.
A Memorial Service will be held on Tuesday, February 19, 2013 at 11:00 am at the chapel at Mt. Pisgah Cemetery in Gillette, Wyoming. A reception will follow at the Moose Lodge.
