JIM McKEE For the Lincoln Journal Star Nebraska has produced a number of philanthropists through the decades, some becoming known nationally and even worldwide, while a few, through their efforts, have been felt over a large area, still remain almost unknown. Such was David Kaufmann of Grand Island, a “quiet hero,” who died at the age of 93 “without anybody but the people he helped knowing what he did.” David Kaufmann was born in Munstereift, Germany, in 1875. After apprenticing in a German department store from 1891 to 1894 he served a year in the German army, moving to Cologne to study window dressing and store display, becoming a salesman for an umbrella manufacturer then clerking in a retail store from 1898 to 1903.
