He was a firm believer in law and order and has worked beside and with the sheriffs, deputies, SBI/FBI as well as a friend to many others in law enforcement. A man of few words, but with deep convictions, but when he spoke many listened and few were ever disappointed.
Our father was the best father that 2 girls could ask for and the best Pawpaw, ever! He was a man of many, many skills, he was always there when anyone family, friend, or the community needed help, he was there. He was a loyal and trustworthy friend. He loved being outdoors, hunting, fishing and doing things with his friends.
