IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Sep 24, 1934 — Nov 3, 2018
He really enjoyed working with his hands and loved being outside. He wasn't one to sit around the house. In the early days it was work and golf, whereas later in life, he had a passion for farming and cattle. He was always very self-sufficient. You could hand him any tool and he already knew how to use it. He built the house they have been living in Hope.
One of many compliments we often heard was "They don't make 'em like him anymore". He's a hard worker, he stands behind his word (if he tells you he's going to do something, he will do it), very loyal, he can fix just about anything, has many friends, and he has a big heart.
He and Helen just recently celebrated their 64th wedding anniversary.
