As a Jack-of all-trades, he took pride in helping family, neighbors, and co-workers with repairs on cars, small engines etc. as well as helping with building and construction. He was a Heavy Equipment Operator and did maintenance in Alaska. At Symrise Foods he worked in production and then the warehouse.
