He enjoyed flying, fast cars, telling tall tales, tractors, mowers and all that goes with it. He never met a stranger; people were drawn to him. He was loved by his family and all who knew him. He was a wise man who was true to his word. He’d give you the shirt off his back if you were in need and never let you go hungry.
