He was part of the coffee clutch guys at McDonald's and Donut Connection. He enjoyed working in his yard, gardening, and loved the beach. He could always be found on the 95th Street beach in Stone Harbor. He was known as the "flag guy" because he proudly displayed the American flag on a pole that flew high above everyone. He will miss his "beach crew" immensely. His greatest joy was spending time with his grandchildren. He was so proud of them and all their accomplishments. He loved following their many adventures.
