David Eugene Schreiner was born March 24, 1931 in Fullerton, Nebraska to Gustav and Emaline (McKenzie) Schreiner. He attended grade school in Fullerton through the sixth grade and went to junior high school in Wilbur Nebraska. Dave graduated from high school in Sutherland, Iowa.

On May 25, 1952, David and Arlys Wittrock were united in marriage at the Sutherland Methodist Church. They were blessed with three children.
