David Allan Schnacky

David Allan Schnacky, age 62, of Bloomington, Minnesota, passed away suddenly on Sunday, October 12, 2025, at his cherished cabin in Danbury, Wisconsin. David was a devoted husband, loving father, proud grandpa ("Papa"), brother, son, uncle, and dear friend to many. Born on September 7, 1963, in Minneapolis to Rolland and Shirley Schnacky (Kardack), David grew up in Richfield and graduated from Richfield High School in 1982. He went on to build a long and successful career in architectural design, working for 26 years at Ankeny Kell Architects and, most recently, for 15 years at Plekkenpol Builders. His talent, creativity, and commitment to excellence earned him recognition with a Contractor of the Year (CotY) Award from the National Association of the Remodeling Industry in 2015. David and his wife, Linda, shared 22 wonderful years together. They were married on the North Shore of Minnesota in the summer of 2019-a place that reflected their shared love of nature and simple joys. Together, they loved exploring state parks, hiking, and enjoying life with their dog, Cooper. His life was centered around family and meaningful connections. He was first married to Marilyn Schnacky, and together they welcomed their daughter, Emily, who was a constant source of pride and joy in his life. David will be remembered for his generous heart, fun-loving spirit, and his infectious smile that could light up any room. He was always ready to lend a helping hand, share a story, or make someone laugh. His hobbies reflected his curious mind and zest for life-he enjoyed coin collecting, fishing, bowling, learning about history, cheering for the Minnesota Wild, and spending time outdoors. He is survived by his wife, Linda Schnacky; first wife, Marilyn Schnacky; their daughter, Emily (Tim) Swanson; grandsons, Bennett and Tanner; siblings, Carol Johnson, Janet Thompson, and Lenny Schnacky (Leslie Wondra); as well as many nieces, nephews, and other relatives. He was preceded in death by his father, Rolland Schnacky; mother, Shirley Schnacky; and sister, Mary Schnacky. A celebration of life will be held on Monday, October 27, with visitation at 10 a.m., followed by a service at 11 a.m. at Washburn-McReavy Edina Chapel (5000 W 50th Street, Edina, Minnesota, 55436). A luncheon will follow. Interment will be held at Dawn Valley Cemetery (9940 Bush Lake Road, Bloomington, MN, 55438) the same day at 2:30 p.m. Please note that there is ongoing construction in the area; guests are encouraged to allow extra travel time when attending the service. www.washburn-mcreavy.com Edina Chapel 952-920-3996
