David Eugene Losey

David Eugene Losey was born in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin on July 7, 1947. (Same day as Roswell Crash). He was the only child of Robert Calvin Losey and Grace Kettner. (Yes, he was special). He lived in Milwaukee, when it was one of the largest industrialized cities in the United States. He would spend summers on his grandfather’s farm in Hustiford; Wisconsin.  Both cities had a large German population and a great work ethic. He spoke some German when he was young and always remembered the names of the farm animals.

He attended Pulaski High School and graduated in 1966. He attended Milwaukee Institute of Technology and University of Wisconsin at Platteville. He liked the accounting and the business courses.

David married Joyce Drow and had two sons, James and Sean. Joyce was a flight attendant for Braniff. That is how he arrived in Dallas. He moved back to Milwaukee, for a short time, but the opportunity to earn a good living was greater in Dallas. David went to work for Smith Corona Marchant selling copiers. He was successful in sales and decided to try selling real estate.

He was then hired by Fox and Jacobs Home Builders. David honed many great building and selling skills while there and made many great friends. He enjoyed many cruises with his friends that they had won for outstanding performance in sales.  David He never left real estate and continued to work for other firms; such as, Woodhaven Homes.  He eventually went to work for Keller Williams Realty, where his new wife, Theresa (Terry) Rioux Losey worked.  They formed The Losey Team and worked together for many years and enjoyed meeting clients together.

Theresa was also, a flight attendant for Delta so they traveled the world.  They honeymooned in Australia, went on a safari in South Africa, rode elephants into the water in Bangkok and spent Thanksgiving in Germany to attend the Christmas Markets.  Some of their other many stops were Prague, Iceland, Spain, Portugal, Paris, and China.

We truly experienced a beautiful life; full of love, friends and family, adventure and success.  The icing on the cake was his beautiful granddaughter, Sara.
