to Colorado in 1977, where he eventually retired after twenty years.

Denver . He became a fixture at the home and made himself available to whatever the residences
needed from cleaning their electric razors, picking up food donations, transporting and sitting with a
resident during their chemo treatment. He was loved and appreciated by all for his positive outlook and
willingness at times to just sit and talk.
