St. Charles Community Schools

Thank you to Louann Larsen and daughters, Bridgette (Brian) LaJoice of Merrill; and Julie (Rebecca) Zimmerman of Saginaw; for donating this beautiful sitting area in honor of David Larsen. David began a 34-year career with the St. Charles Community School, including their sports program, where he had the opportunity of a lifetime to mentor countless athletes throughout his lifetime. Known as "Coach," he used his love of sports to serve the school district, coaching middle school track, middle school boys' and girls' basketball, varsity cross country, and his greatest success - high school girl’s track and field. He was proud of his athletes' achievements which included multiple school record holders, state qualifiers, and state champions. David was a devoted husband, father, and papa. He loved his family very much. David was a 1973 graduate of Merrill High School. Throughout school, David excelled in all sports, especially in baseball, basketball, and track, and as the quarterback of the varsity football team. Following graduation, David attended Hillsdale College and then transferred to Saginaw Valley State University, where he graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Education. We will dedicate this area to David Larsen on Friday, October 6, between the 1st-2nd quarters with a moment of silence
