He enjoyed many sporting activities, as a fan and as a participant. As his illness progressed, he still remembered what days he could watch wrestling, golf, hockey, football or baseball. His daughters and grandchildren have vivid memories of him at sporting events and deep sea fishing trips. Dad loved his family and his friends. Many of whom he talked with daily up to his final days. He will be greatly missed by all of us. Our family would like to thank Tony and Anne Gilkerson and Don and Joyce Bush for their kindness and support. We are humbled by the care and compassion they have continually shown our father and ourselves.
