He was a loving husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather. He loved working. His profession was house painting and he enjoyed building things with wood, loved dancing and spending time with his family and with his drinking buddies. He was a happy man that always kept us laughing and feeling the love he had in his heart for each one of us. He also loved going fishing and picnicking. He fought a 6 year battle with cancer, he gave it a good fight but the Lord saw he was tired and called him home. With heavy hearts we say goodbye. We thank the Lord for sharing him with us and the blessing of having him in our lives. He will forever live in our hearts.
