David M. Hoss

David M. Hoss, 61, Sullivan, suddenly departed this world Tuesday, Aug. 16, 2022.

He is survived by his son, Stephan Hoss, Odessa, Texas, his beloved, Sarah Hall, Old Mines, two sisters, Debbie Struke (Patrick) of St. Louis, and Diane Hilpert, (Eric), Alabama, three nephews, his beagle, Sam, other relatives and numerous friends.
Mr. Hoss was preceded in death by his father and mother, Dale and Frances Hoss, (nee Eckerle) of St. Louis.

David served four years in the Navy and was a boiler operator and valve technician by trade for many years. He also loved cars and was planning to open a repair and body shop in Sullivan with a friend.

David was a guy who marched to the beat of his own drum, but he would give you the shirt off his back. It might not be clean, and it might even be a bit smelly, but if you needed it he would most definitely give it to you. He had a great sense of humor, loved going to concerts and relaxed by blasting music from his gigantic speakers. He also loved canoeing, fishing and camping, or boating on a lake, and he was all in and passionate in everything he did.
He will be greatly missed by the people who loved him, but he will never be forgotten.

Visitation was held on Wednesday, Aug. 31st at Michel Funeral Home, St. Louis  from 4-7 p.m.
Interment will be 10:30 a.m. on Wednesday, September 7th at Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery with full military honors.

Arrangements are under the direction of Michel Funeral Home.
