David was born on June 22, 1946, in Detroit, the son of David Edgar and Meryle Clara (Cleaver) Flint. He married Sandra Jean Abraham in Detroit on September 19, 1969.

David graduated from Chadsey High School in 1964 and later earned an associate degree in Electronics from Henry Ford Community College. He proudly served in the U.S. Army during the Vietnam War. Following his military service, he was employed as a manager at Farmer Jack Supermarkets, where he met his wife, Sandra.

In 1971, David began his career in the elevator industry, first as a probationary employee, then as a mechanic, and ultimately advancing into management. He retired from the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor in 2014. David was appointed by the Governor to the State of Michigan Elevator Safety Board and served on multiple code committees. He was a member of St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church, the VFW, and the Linden High School Athletic and Music Booster Clubs over the years. He was passionate about the elevator industry and was known as a voracious reader. He also enjoyed playing the lottery and visiting casinos.

Most of all, David was a steadfast friend to countless people and possessed a remarkable warmth and an easy ability to connect with others.

David is survived by his daughter, Terri (Bryan) Flint - McMahon of Fenton; his son, David (Riann Henkel) Flint of Clarkston; grandchildren Brandon (Emma Glynn), Connor, Kellen, Ian, and Maggie (Adam) Hull; great-grandchildren Sawyer, Charlotte, Rosie, and Averie; sisters Meryle Bronikowski and Linda Glomski; and many nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews.
