He was proceeded in death by his parents, sister and both sets of grandparents.
He enjoyed, fishing, bowling, Formula 1 and Indy Car racing, playing cards, and spending time with family and friends.
He always had a smile on his face and always made you feel welcome in his presence.
You never knew when he would show up in a grass skirt, coconut bra or some other kind of goofy outfit.
You NEVER messed with his hair (unless you were friend or family that did it because he hated it) and he ALWAYS had his reading glasses on top of his head.
We worked in the auto and truck business and bartended most of his adult life.
