He enjoyed playing baseball, hockey and his time at the family cottage growing up. An avid and accomplished bowler he began working at Northcrest Lanes at 13.

A dedicated manager most known for his people skills. Later in life he enjoyed attending his son’s sporting events and watching sports on TV. His biggest love and joy was spending time with his family, his sons, daughter in law and his beloved granddaughters.
