With his musical ear, he could pick up most stringed instruments and naturally play them. He enjoyed sitting in the kitchen singing along with his guitar, we can still picture him singing the Hank Snow song, about his hair still curly and his eyes still blue! He was a skilled gardener and enjoyed being outside, he was always helping his neighbor with their lawns and their snow removal. He was an amazing father and he truly did the best with the knowledge he had, he had a kind heart, soft heart for small children, a hard worker and a great man.
