In his younger years, he enjoyed taking small trips and camping with family and friends. Later he traveled extensively with Elizabeth by car, plane, train and ship around the globe. The highlight for him was seeing the Great Wall of China. He'll always be remembered for his gardening skills. His display of flowers and vegetables along the creek rd. will always be in the mind of those who saw it. He loved to cook, fish and taking care of his bees and had a passion for history and nature.
