In the fall he loved coon hunting and deer hunting on the farm with family and friends and sharing their stories. He enjoyed the casino and his annual visit to Las Vegas. He hardly missed a morning coffee with his friends. He looked forward to family bonfires, and the annual up north trip mushroom hunting. He was a friend to many and was loved deeply by his family.
