He had retired from Hamlin Electric in Colorado after 25 years. He was a free spirit who loved to travel and drive his beat-up old truck everywhere. He made many new friends along the way. He was very generous and would help anyone he could. He was very knowledgeable and smart. He loved dogs, cats and horses.
