David Miller Biggs was born on August 14, 1953, in Tucson, Arizona. He graduated from McClintock High School in Tempe, Arizona, in 1971. He married Barbara Springer in 1974. Over the next four years, the couple welcomed two children into their home, Kari and Bradley. His children remember him as a hard-working printer by trade, a man dedicated to providing for his family.

After moving to Chandler, David began work as a press manager for USA Today newspaper. He later moved with his wife to Tucson, where he owned and operated Western Web and Graphics. In Tucson, David worked diligently to build a paradise in the desert, digging post holes, landscaping, and drafting and designing multiple structures to create a quiet, peaceful home for himself, his wife, and his dog, Hay, to live.

Upon retirement, the couple moved to Springerville, Arizona. He enjoyed camping, fishing, fly tying, and keeping busy. He loved a good project, especially if it took him outside. He also loved tickling and hugs. He was his wife’s soulmate, caring for her during her battles with illness. He will be missed.
