Traveling to visit his children and grandchildren was a favorite, he looked forward to planning their time together and all the things they would get to do. He loved playing golf with his friends, but especially with his brother, sons, and nephews. His passion was family reunions to bring his entire family together, he would just sit back and watch with such joy. He, along with the other elders of the family, would sit and talk about their younger days and then look out into the yard and smile at what our family had accomplished. It brought him so much joy to see everyone together in one place. He was a very caring and generous man. You will be missed so much; we’ll be seeing you. Much love.
