He was the most soothing person who always found the good in everyone and everything. He was a smiling man, quick to laugh, overtly supportive and cherished his family more than anything. He enjoyed riding his motorcycle with friends, trips to Florida, Sunday dinners and was particularly proud of his daughter Erin who he was always gardening and doing projects with.
