He enjoyed hunting, fishing and woodworking, making special items for family members. He also made wood plank model ships and his 18' cabin cruiser which was his pride and joy. He was an avid sports fan but especially the Chicago Cubs. In later years, he enjoyed Oneida bingo and slots. His greatest joy was the time he spent with his family and grandchildren.
