David W. Schrott, Sr., 61, of Quarryville passed away Saturday, September 3, 2016 surrounded by his loving children. Born in Johnstown, PA he was the son of the late Francis K. Schrott and the late Ann (Ramach) Schrott. He is survived by his five children, David W. Schrott, Jr., husband of EJ of Millersville, Anna M. Metzler wife of Jordan of Strasburg, Lydia K. Walter wife of Jeremy of Lampeter, Seth F. Schrott husband of Brittany of East Petersburg and Sarah F. Keller wife of Dr. Nathan. Also surviving are eight grandchildren, Adrianna, Von, Jordy, Benjamin, Preston, Calista, Evelyn, Stella; one brother Matthew Schrott, two sisters, Frances Figard, Catherine Begazo, aunt LaVerne Schrott and his former wife and continued friend Valerie Schrott. David was an extremely generous individual who gave himself fully to his children, beloved grandchildren and his favorite little friend, his dog, Parker. All of his children were involved in various levels of athletics and he almost never missed a game, even if it meant driving through the night to see a field hockey game in Indiana or Iowa. He had an enthusiastic love for the Pittsburgh Steelers, Harley Davidson and all things gardening. Having spent the early part of his career as a Ford Mechanic and a steel worker for Bethlehem Steel, he was incredibly industrious and handy; he could fix anything. Not only was he generous with his time, but he was generous with his knowledge. He loved to help fix things and took great pride in being able to teach others the same valuable skill. After moving from Johnstown to Lancaster in 1985, he was a self-employed drywaller who took incredible pride in doing a thorough and quality job.
