AC was involved in many school, civic, and charitable organizations in his younger years, including being an active member of Wallace Boy Scout Pack 35 for many years. Most recently, he dedicated his time and money to Backpack Buddies and the Helping Hands Food Pantry. AC appreciated the value of hard work and the rewards it brought whether it was cleaning his favorite car or helping a neighbor.
