Rapid City - David Donald Broz was born on October 11, 1960 in Wagner, South Dakota. He worked for the Rapid City Journal delivering bundles of papers and filling newspaper racks. He died Friday, October 28, in Rapid City. As a young boy, his dad needed to reach around him when working on car engines as David had to be in front to see everything that was going on. As a child, he was in Boy Scouts, liked to shoot BB guns, build go-carts, and went to the races every week. He moved to Rapid City in 1976 with his family and graduated from Stevens High School in 1978. David attended Western Dakota Tech and graduated in 1994 with a diploma for Welding Technology. He built a three wheeler as a graduation project that he was extremely proud of. As an adult, he loved being a part of the auto racing scene as a mechanic; building and repairing the cars. David could be found battling the weather to pull people's cars out of ditches during a snowstorm. He helped anyone in need to get their vehicle running and back on the road; scouring junk yards, using spare parts, duct tape, rubber bands, and bubble gum if necessary. He spent time recycling metals such as aluminum cans, copper tubing, and iron from cars that had seen better days. David was a kid at heart often cracking jokes, teasing, and watching cartoons. He was a teddy bear that children piled on and wrestled with the minute he laid on the floor. The last year of his life was one of his happiest as he had met the love of his life and had acquired a home. David will be truly missed by his family, friends, and all the people that his big heart touched. David is survived by his mother, Elizabeth "Betty" Broz; two sisters, Cynthia Broz and Marie Broz, all of Rapid City; a brother, Daniel (Rebecca) Broz, of Cabot, AR; his girlfriend, Johni Wiloth, of Rapid City; two nephews, Kyle Knispel, of Aurora, CO, and Aeden Broz, of Rapid City; three nieces, Angela Knispel and Megan Knispel, both of Rapid City, and Abigail Broz, of Cabot, AR; two step-nephews, Joseph Davenport, of Longmont, CO, and Matthew Davenport, of Anchorage, AK; one great nephew, Reggie Kirksey, of Rapid City; many aunts and uncles, Robert (Shirley) Broz and Norma (Clarence) Nedved, of Wagner, SD; Milo Broz, of Placerville, CA; Rolland (Donna) Broz, of Witchata, KS; Florence Kokesh, of Wagner, SD; Irene (William) Cuka, of Rapid City; Raymond (Jane) Kostel, of Lake Andes, SD; and Lucille Kostel, of Wagner, SD.
