Dad lived a full life doing what he wanted and how he wanted. He lived all over the country from Connecticut to Alaska to Florida to Virginia to Washington, where he passed away at home in Ocean Shores with his beloved dog, Hershey, by his side.

He is survived by his son, John; daughter Debbi; four beautiful grown grandkids and best friend Kathy.

He had a bit of a twisted sense of humor with a mischievous way. His advice to you would be to “Slow down and feed the deer!”

Hershey will be spoiled and loved ’til you pick her up for the last flight dad.
