As a boy he earned the designation of eagle scout. He proudly served his country in the US Army. He retired from Rexam PLC, a global consumer packaging company, after thirty-five years as a maintainer. Those who worked with him knew him to be a hard worker and very meticulous in all he did. From a very young age his love of pets continued throughout his life. After retirement, most days you would find him working in his garden. He loved to help others any way he could, especially members of his church family. He was most proud of all his grandkids who knew him as granddaddy. He will be surely missed by all who knew and loved him, but we know without a doubt that he is in heaven, and we will see him again. Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift of eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
