For the more than 15 years I knew him he always was there when we needed him. I could have never done the things I needed to on my property, if it was not for his help! There was no one who could use a bulldozer better than him. He was amazing. No one compares. His work with Cal Fire saved lives, homes, and land. Hunter and Harley will miss him! My nine-year-old son Harley said that he must be up in Hevan on a Giant White Bulldozer moving the Clouds.
