He married Sarah Sharp on June 12, 2004. Dave was a graduate of Metro Christian Academy, and received his degree in Business from Oklahoma State University where he was a member of Sigma Chi fraternity.

He was preceded in death by grandparents Ray and Alice Wheeler, and grandfather Bernard Frakes, and his father David Ray Wheeler. Dave was a man of solid faith. His strong character was readily apparent with his straightforward approach to every difficult conversation and situation. Dave easily made friends with his smile and his hilarious quick wit. He never met a stranger, and every friend would tell you they loved him. He loved making people smile by telling anecdotes and sharing stories of his adventures. His family is what he cherished the most. He adored his wife, and he doted on his daughters. He also enjoyed playing golf and loved riding motorcycles.
