He leaves behind Geri his wife of 61 years at their Arlington family home., children Debra, Dawn and Craig; 6 grandchildren, 2 great grandchildren, and 2 brothers. He was proceeded in death by daughter Diane, grandson Jeffery, parents and 3 siblings.
After graduation from Snohomish High School and Naval service he pursued a career as a machinist, culminating at Boeing. A layoff after many years brought about a career change to become a bus driver and he retired from the Marysville School District.
Over the years he enjoyed many activities including camping, woodworking, motorcycle riding, gardening, golf, jigsaw puzzles, and much laughter and fun playing pinochle and other games with family and friends. A highlight after retirement was a trip to Israel.
Until we meet again you will be greatly missed. Donations may be made in his memory to Alzheimer's research.
