If you knew him, you know he was always upbeat, always good for a hearty laugh and a good listener, too. It was such a pleasure to catch up with him at the high school reunions...recalling school days AND hearing of his valuable work with the sheriff's department. I sincerely agree with all the Guest Book entries here...wanting only to add that I enjoyed his being a pal in the early days, plus appreciating the world he created for his family and associates as an adult. I'm thinking that...
