Lance was a proud father to his two children, Garrett and Georgia, who he referred to with many loving nicknames.
He was a retired firefighter and saved countless lives. Even in retirement, he saved a stranger shortly before his death.
Lance was an avid fisherman and spent his last day on the water.
Lance also loved music. Being with Lance always involved listening to music, memories of concerts, and---if he was lucky---a bit of playing the guitar.
The people and things Lance loved, he loved intensely. He had a big heart and an exuberant spirit. He will be sorely missed.
Lance was preceded in death by his father, Glen. Until the time of his death, he was the caretaker of his mother, Jeanette. He is also survived by his children Garrett and Georgia, his brother Bret (Peggy); and nephews, Brock and Wesley.
