Words that live on in those left in wait. He was a man of few words and always to the point. Although a private man and kept to himself, he had a big heart and was friendly to most. He could make a friend anywhere he went. He loved animals and helping others, especially the elderly. His passions and hobbies consisted of fishing, spending time with family, remodeling homes and gardening. That man had a magical way with his plants. He especially loved his husky and beloved family member, Indika. He was his baby.

A limb has fallen from the family tree that say “Grieve not for me, remember the best times, the laughter, the songs, the good life I lived while I was strong”.
