He met the love of his life, Phyllis when she was in Maine visiting at age 16 and they were married for 64 wonderful years prior to her death in 2017. He was a kind, generous and caring person whose big heart and great sense of humor will be sadly missed. He was a lifelong member of the Bristol Elks and very involved for many years and was also a lifetime devoted fan of the Boston Red Sox and New England Patriots.
