A loving fiancé, father, and grandfather, he enjoyed days spent fishing, watching The Andy Griffith Show, working in his yard whizzing around on the zero-turn mower, and having a good cup of coffee.
He had a tender heart, a contagious smile, and he roared with laughter when he expressed his wonderful sense of humor! He never met a stranger, and made it a point to remember names of people he routinely encountered at the store or doctors offices. He was charismatic and charming, and his laughter will be missed by everyone who loved him.
