He was always letting them know how proud he was of their accomplishments, sharing stories all will remember. From fishing trips to his favorite spots, attending ballgames and special events he was always present to cheer them on.
His great grandchildren were the sparkle in his eye in recent years. With the latest technology he enjoyed the photos and videos of his great grands. Videos were watched over and over and brought much joy to POP!
