David Winder

David L. Winder, 54, was called home by God’s grace and loving mercy to be with his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on February 22, 2026 in Aberdeen, Idaho. He was a beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother, and friend. We will miss his smile, his sense of humor, his laughter and his love that overflowed from his big heart towards us all.

He was born to David E. Winder and Frances A. Nuckolls on 03/26/1971 in Idaho Falls, Idaho as the only son and third child following two sisters. He has lived in many places throughout his life but had since planted his roots in Aberdeen, Idaho.

David married Tammie Montgomery, the love of his life, on May 3, 2024. David is survived by his wife Tammie of Aberdeen, Idaho; daughter, Erynn(Miguel) Olmedo with grandchildren, Kaique, Marlee and Asa of American Falls, Idaho; son, Dawson(Gates) Winder with grandchildren, Radke and Conley of Anchorage, Alaska; son, Duglas(Kayla) Montgomery with grandchildren, Ava and Makylah of Missoula, Montana; daughter, Kallie Sommers with grandson, Kyle, of Aberdeen, Idaho; daughter, Kylie(Tanner) Sommers of Missoula, Montana; mother, Frances(Steve) Martin of Coin, Iowa; sister, Cherie(Lawrence-deceased) Wray, of Coin, Iowa; and sister, Dana(David) Hendricks of Pocatello, Idaho; and many other family members as well as numerous friends. David is preceded in death by his father, David E. Winder, who passed away on June 27, 2011 in American Falls, Idaho.

David’s favorite things to do were camping, hunting, fishing and off-roading with family and friends. He was also an artist when it came to cooking good food, musical endeavors like self- taught guitar play, and writing his own songs to worship unto the Lord. He also loved to shoot competitively or for fun. These were his passions. His passion also included the study of the Word of God and being His witness. His deep-rooted belief in God the Father, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit made his passion to be a disciple and teacher so apparent with those who knew him.

He had quite a few accomplishments. He graduated from ISU Auto Mechanics program after high school and was an ASE Certified mechanic who was employed with the dealership in American Falls for a time and in Pocatello at Sun Power Automotive. He owned his own gunsmith business where he shared his expertise with other gun owners and their passion for the sport.

The family would like to express their deepest gratitude to the Power County EMS, Power County Hospital, and to every individual who assisted David with his last moments. May God bless you.
