David L. Kramer, age 70 of Coal City, IL. passed away at his home on June 11, 2022.

He was born in Joliet, IL. on June 25, 1951 to Raymond C. and Frances A. (nee Galbraith) Kramer.  David was a lifelong resident of Coal City and graduated from Coal City High School. He developed a major interest at a young age for cars, trucks and racing. David raced on several area short tracks during the 60's and 70's.  He was a talented auto mechanic and worked at various auto shops, including Greenway Motors from which he retired at the age of 42, which was his personal goal. He worked on vehicles for numerous people and could drive anything.  At the end of a busy day driving around town in the blue cream puff, David enjoyed relaxing and receiving visitors at his favorite place, "The Kramer Estate".

He is survived by his sister, Margaret Love; his brother, Gerald (Nancy) Kramer; his niece and nephews, Jeff (Heather) Kramer, Dan Kramer, Jerry Love and Sally Ritchey; his great nieces and nephews, Zakk, Maxx, Ryder and Myla Kramer as well as several cousins.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Raymond and Frances Kramer.
