He worked at US Steel for over 40 yrs. He also worked for versions companies during layoffs to provide for his family. He was a member of FOE for over 30 yrs. He loved dancing, playing pool, swimming, and people. He didn’t know a stranger; he would always say it was just a new friend he didn’t know yet.

He was an avid pool player and taught many people to enjoy and play the game. He could make you smile when they were looking sad and laugh when you felt like crying.

Your traditions and memories will live on forever, in our hearts and lives.
