David Austin Tillman, 48, Topeka, passed away Saturday, February 2, 2019.
He was born April 30, 1970, in Topeka, Kansas, the son of David and Marian (Ginter) Tillman. He graduated from Seaman High School in 1988 and earned his journeyman's license from IBEW Local 226.

Dave loved hot rod cars, especially his T-Bucket, a car that him and his father built together. He was an avid KU basketball and Dallas Cowboys fan.
