David Priest was born and raised in Northport. He was born at the Memorial hospital and is Leelanau through and through.

Priest’s great-grandfather came over from Germany in the late 1800s and settled on what is now Maple Valley Road, a mile east of St. Vincent church.

“We’ve been in that area for a long time,” Priest said.
