It is with heavy hearts that we must announce the passing of David Thomas Quirk, age 40, died on April 6, 2023. He was a loving son and brother, proud uncle, and loyal friend. David was born on May 8, 1982 in Antigo, a son of Lisa Welnetz of Antigo and the late Dale Quirk.
He graduated from Antigo High School in 2000. After graduation, he worked at Satori's in Antigo, was a car salesman in Indiana, and worked in construction in Texas. He was in the process of starting his own construction company in Deer Park, Texas.
Dave was a member of Faith Family Church in Texas. He enjoyed attending car shows, playing pool, poker, thrifting, collecting sports cards, and was an avid sports fan.
He was always willing to listen and help those in need. Dave never met a stranger. He was known for his big heart, quick wit, and ability to make people laugh.
