Dad was a very active member of the Fillmore Lions Club for many years. He held just about every office and received many awards and acoLades.

Dad was always very organized and very meticulous about his vehicles, especially his 1957 Ford Fairlane, that was always showroom perfect and always had the best yard on the block. He was always very supportive with both of his sons sporting activities. Besides working in his yard, he also enjoyed bowing and watching any kind of sports on T.V. especially the Dodgers.
