Dave was born October 17, 1950, in Havre to Woodrow and Louise (Baker) Skinner. He was raised in Havre, attending school there. After high school, Dave worked for Burlington Northern, as a cook, on a cannery boat in Alaska, and finally as a heavy equipment operator for a seismic company out of Texas. The work he did for them caused medical conditions that resulted in his retirement in the early 2000s.

Dave married Marlene Azure in 1972, and the couple had two daughters before divorcing.

Dave was an outgoing man with a great sense of humor. He was well-liked by most who met him, and his favorite pastime was playing machines.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Woodrow and Louise Skinner.

Dave is survived by his three daughters, Shontrell Anderson of Billings, Jessika Shulund of Missoula and Michelle Bauer of Billings; grandchildren, Alexis and Tyler (Victoria) Anderson; great-grandson, Andrew Anderson; sisters, Sharon Skinner of Havre and Linda Harding of Sand Coulee; niece, Kim Romanchuk; nephews, Jason Harding and Mark Arner; numerous cousins, and many friends.
