Born on December 7, 1944, in Potsdam, NY, he was known for his kind heart, helping others, and his great love for his family and the Lord. As a father, he was loving, supportive, and protective. He taught by example, showing what it meant to be a good person and to help others.

Though our hearts are heavy, we are thankful for the time God shared him with us. His love and spirit will always continue to lead and guide us. He will be forever remembered and loved.
A private memorial service will be announced at a later time.
