He retired from the Risk Management division of Florida Power and later became an entrepreneur. His kindness and love for his family, neighbors, friends, and strangers were felt throughout his Saint Petersburg community. He was an avid animal lover, particularly of dogs.
He is survived by his daughters, Nicole Castillo and Erin Tompkins, and his granddaughters, Taylor and Payton Tompkins.
Services will be announced at a later date.
