Definitely one of the all-time good guys. Not only was he a kind and generous man, he was always willing to share his knowledge and skills. He built a storage unit in my garage over 30 years ago that has served my needs and stood the test of time. First and foremost, he and Jayne built a wonderful family that is a tribute to him.
