Life story
Proud dad to Celese and April, and proud pawpaw to Destany, Breanna, Austin and Morgan aka Monkeybutt. Our dad was an amazing EMT, and firefighter not to mention one heck of a drummer. He was a man that would go out of their way to help just about anyone. Loved to visit and have coffee with his family and friends. If you knew him, you knew a great man. The world is a lot dimmer since he's gone
