He was a man that loved his Lord and desired to share what Jesus Christ had done for him on the cross of Calvary. He truly never forgot the "joy" of his salvation and shared it with everyone!! Praying for his family during this difficult time and that they will be comforted in knowing that he is joyfully in the presence of the Lord!
