Dad passed away from natural causes 10 days after his 96th birthday. He was an avid outdoorsman who loved camping, hunting and fishing. Deer hunting was his favorite and he was always excited when October rolled around. He leaves behind his daughter Wendy (Dennis) Gilpin, grandson Grant (Jamie) Wick, Son-in-law LeRoy (Shareen) Ritter, stepdaughter Debbie (Tom) DeRosier, stepson Gary (Scott) Wells and numerous Step-grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his first wife Elinor, daughter Mary and second wife Lorraine. Our family would like to thank the staff of Graceful Living; Olga, Sean, Mariah and Winnie for the excellent care they gave to dad. Per his request there will be no services.
