He enjoyed Triumph motorcycles, wood working, playing the guitar, trapping, and spending time with his nine grandchildren. He was an active member of the Weber Chapter of A.B.A.T.E. where he made many good friends. Dee's best friend was his dog, Willey, an English Pointer who joined him on many adventures and who shared his enthusiasm for the great outdoors.
