David James Bennett was born May 29, 2004 in Columbus, Nebraska to Jamie and Julie (Korth) Bennett. He received his education at St. Isidore Catholic School and Columbus Public School. David was active in many youth sports. He especially enjoyed playing soccer and spending time with his brother Nicholas playing Fifa. He enjoyed fishing with his grandpas and sister Logan as well as hunting turkey and deer with his mom. He loved his bobcat hunting day with his dad, but his greatest hunting trip was the wild hog hunt in Oklahoma. David had a talent for woodworking and creating projects such as  crosses, and cutting boards. His skills and creative mind led him to a patent  for a goalie glove, which was worn in the World Cup in Panama. He enjoyed four wheeling on the river, camping, and his dog, Nala.
