David Lyle Rosenbeck
David Lyle Rosenbeck, 81, of Creston, Iowa passed away on Wednesday February 19, 2020 at Sunnyview Care Center in Ankeny, Iowa.
David was born on March 29, 1938 to Andrew and Bertha Rosenbeck in Guthrie Center, Iowa. He served in the US Navy for four years in the 1950s. Throughout his life he was employed as an electrician, truck driver, as well as spending several years at Wellman Dynamics. His favorite career by far, however, was as a musician.
