February 19, 1951 – November 16, 2023
David Haupt of Lewiston, Michigan, passed away at his home on Thursday, November 16, 2023.
David was born in Detroit, Michigan. He worked in telecommunications throughout his life. Growing up, he and his family enjoyed traveling to Deer Park, located in the Upper Peninsula, where they spent summers outdoors fishing, looking for agates, and taking in the beautiful scenery Nature had to offer. David spent his time boating, hiking, trout fishing, and looking for eagles. His hobbies included airplanes, trains, and flying kites. David met the love of his life, Mary, 12 years ago. They got married, settled in Lewiston, and enjoyed their summers in Deer Park together. David dearly loved spending time with his grandchildren and great-grandchildren; teaching them to fish, taking them on ATV rides, and spending time with them on the lake with all of his water toys for them to enjoy.
David is survived by his wife Mary Haupt, his mother Phylis Haupt, his children: Eric Haupt, Adam Haupt (Grace), Michelle McFadden (Michael), and Jodi Gordon; his sisters: Linda Joseph (Thomas), Cathy Chenard (Frank), and Marianne Haupt; his brothers: Steven Haupt (Judy) and Andrew Haupt (Danielle).

David was preceded in death by his father Michael Haupt; his brothers: Kenny Haupt, Phil Haupt, and Chris Haupt; his sister Pam Enright (Tom); and his great-grandson Emmett Grim.
In accordance with his wishes, cremation has taken place. A Memorial Gathering will be held at a later date.
