The photo selected was from a party we had to celebrate his 75th birthday.  However, someone miscalculated and we had it a year early.  Lucky, for us as he never saw his real 75th.  

He was always a proud Marine and loved his family.  He would do anything for people he called his friends.  He was never still and always looking for the next project, even when he wasn't feeling all that well.

He will forever be remembered in the immediate family as one who loved to terrorize the little kids by being loud, but in reality, he was a marshmallow and would move heaven and earth if it was in his power.

Love and miss you to this day, Dad.
