David J. Knoble, age 48, of Reedsburg, WI, chose to leave this world of pain on
Wednesday, December 30, 2015.  He was born in Boscobel, WI on March 8, 1967 to Darold and Lois (Fischer) Knoble.  Dave graduated from Boscobel High School with the class of 1985.  He went on to receive his teaching degree in music education from UW LaCrosse in 1990 and began his teaching career.  He later received his Master's Degree in education with a music emphasis from UW Platteville.

Dave moved to Reedsburg in 1992 and began teaching middle school vocal music there.  He remained there until 2004, while also operating a studio out of his home teaching private piano and voice     lessons.  He had a tremendous talent and brought out the best in the hundreds of students that he worked with over the years.

Following his teaching career, he tried several various vocations before settling on establishing himself as a successful insurance agent and investment broker.  He had many clients who relied on him to find the very best coverage and investment options for them and was always available to help them in any way he could.

Dave's talent and love for music and desire to share that with others was ever present.  He worked with the Reedsburg Players to do various musicals and directed the community choir on several occasions to perform the Messiah at Christmas time.  He played and sang for innumerable weddings and funerals in the community, as well as directing the senior choir and bell choir at St. John Lutheran Church.  He later went on to become the Director of Music Ministries at the church, and reopened his studio for private piano and voice lessons.

Dave is survived by his parents,  Darold and Lois of Boscobel; his sister, Laura (Hans) Steele and nephew, Parker, also of Boscobel.  Dave was part of so many Reedsburg families too numerous to mention, and will be sorely missed by all of them, including his church family at St. John.       (Memorial services are planned for Sunday, January 17 in Reedsburg and Saturday, January 23 in Boscobel.)
Dave is gone but his music and laughter will continue to live in our hearts forever.  We miss you!
