David
Timothy’s background:
— Was born in Detroit, Michigan.
— Was a member of his high school debate team.
— Tried out for the baseball team but his coach said although
he had a lot of heart, he was a slow runner with a weak bat and
a poor glove. David's baseball career was very brief!
His college years:
— Attended Western Michigan University where he was an active
member of the debate team.
— Although still recovering from his high school baseball
fiasco, remained active in interfraternal sports including track,
basketball and wrestling (however he did not play baseball).
— Was graduated from W.M.U. in 1970.
His business career:
— For many years David has had a fulfilling career in the
field of insurance where he specialized in pension organization.
His passion:
— For a long time, David had a vision in the back of his mind
to start a soup kitchen. With the help of a very good friend, he
transformed that vision into the concept of a mobile soup kitchen.
Hence the birth of the SoupMobile in the summer of 2003.
His favorite movie:
—
Rocky. Because overcoming impossible odds,
Rocky triumphed over his circumstances and became heavyweight
champion of the world!
It's a story of hope.
It's a story of courage.
It's the story of one man beating the odds and making it to
the top.
David believes that there's a little bit of Rocky in all of
us. He believes that in each one of us resides the spirit and
the passion to triumph and be the champion of our own lives!
His favorite soup:
—
Tomato
