David Leland Jach passed away at his home in Saline, Mich., on Saturday, September 10, 2022, surrounded in love. He was 90 and three-quarters years old!
David was born November 4, 1931, in Manistee, Michigan to the late Joseph and Ida Mae Jach. His grandmother, Marion Thompson, was instrumental in his upbringing and his outlook on life. David was a devoted and loving father to his three children, Craig, Kim, and Erin. In 1981 he married Marsha, the love of his life. They enjoyed 41 years of love, devotion, laughter and travel.
David graduated from Manistee High School in 1950. He was a veteran of the US Army and Coast Guard with a rank of Sergeant during the Korean War. After his service, he went to Michigan State University and graduated in 1959 with a BS in Physical Education, later receiving his Masters degree in Special Education. David enjoyed over 30 years as an educator with the State of Michigan, specializing in working with troubled youth. He was also involved in coaching Football, Basketball and Track, achieving a state championship for Track in 1963. He was extremely proud of his accomplishments as both a teacher and coach.
An avid golfer for most of his adult life, David spent most of his free time on the green with his buddies Wolf, Kim and Swee. During his retirement years he taught Catechism at St. Joseph Catholic Church in Dexter, and enjoyed staying active by working at Dexter Mills Golf Course and sharing his golf knowledge with anyone who would stand still. David never knew a stranger and enjoyed meeting new people, learning about them, and joking and laughing with anyone who would smile.
David is survived by his wife Marsha (Langmeyer) Jach, 3 children - Craig (Julie) Jach, Kim (Jim) Eloff and Erin (Alan) Cook, 6 grandchildren, 7 great-grandchildren and dozens of nieces and nephews.

Thank you to those Council members who support the citizens and the Rec Center.
Please note, the rec center now requires 1/3 to almost 1/2 of its operations be funded by the City of Saline taxpayers. Approximately 10% of our City population uses the facility, while 2/3 of the members are non-resident. It’s time the non City residents of the Saline community pays its fair share.
What happened with the funding for the needed repairs at the Recreation Center? With all of the programs and community services provided at the Recreation Center, the nearby communities spending tens of millions of dollars to build new Recreation Centers, and the number of members/high usage for the Center and part
The mayor and city council love to spend taxpayer dollars frivolously.  More and more $$$ into the rec center, that needs to stop. We still don’t have drinkable water and yet the city keeps raising rates. Can’t speak for everyone but I would much rather have clean water than a “lazy river!” Â
Sorry, Toby Crotty. Do not align to your assessment or thoughts. While nearby communities are spending tens of millions of dollars to build Recreation Centers (because of their value to citizens and communities), Saline is in the fortunate position of already having a very good facility in place which now needs to
You avoided my main point. The rec center is a nice amenity for those that use it. However, it is not a necessity. Clean safe water that we pay exorbitant rates for IS a necessity for EVERYONE!
The unprofessional behavior while in the supposed role of being a journalist when talking to that protester is ridiculous. The incorrect information and “facts” you spewed during the conversation are just par for the course. Thanks for showing up!
I agree with your comments about this journalist. I use the word journalist loosely here, as a journalist should be bringing forth the views of the people they are interviewing, not bringing their obvious bias into every forced conversation.Â
I understand the right 4 peaceful protests, why expose children to hate and show disrespect to our flag, what is that teaching the children. As a Korean Veteran I oppose anyone disrespecting our countries FLAG, shame on the protesters,
