David James McSherry
David James McSherry, was born on October 5, 1961 to Judy and Fred McSherry in Minneapolis, Minnesota. After a short illness, he left this world for the next one on November 15, 2018. He was 57 years old.
Throughout his entire life, Dave LOVED the outdoors. He fondly recalled the days of his youth spent playing baseball with friends on warm, beautiful summer days, or riding dirt bikes with his brother Steve and friends on his grandparent’s vegetable farm. He often said that his parents “hardly knew what he looked like” because he and his friends were always heading out the door for their next adventure. This continued into high school, as Dave kept on with baseball and also developed a true talent for golf. His dad maintained that Dave had enough talent to become a professional golfer. Along with his love of sports, Dave also developed a passion for muscle cars; lots and lots of hours were spent under the hoods of various cars along the way, with his favorite being the 1972 Chevelle SS. Steve says Dave put many hours of time and effort into making it “Dave’s car”.
Dave spent his teenage and early adult summers working on his grandparents’ vegetable farm in Anoka, Minnesota. Years later, his grandfather would proudly state that Dave could offload a radish combine “without spilling one radish!” Dave proudly worked hard, long hours side by side with family members in helping his grandparents, both of whom greatly influenced him throughout his life, grow their farm.
