To him Family was the most important thing, anyone that knew him knows his favorite saying, “I don’t have friends only family.” He loved his dogs, playing in his band, driving truck, and riding his motorcycles. He was a strong man but had a soft heart for those he loved dearly. When he saw you in need, he was there to lift you back up. He became a father figure to many and will be greatly missed by those that knew him.

He had a great love for animals and raised award winning rabbits. He helped his Aunt June show her Great Pyrenees show dogs. He trained his own horses starting at the age of 9. He tried his hand at saddle bronc riding. In his teens, he was a competitive swimmer and had to teach his football team how to swim so he could swim competitively and taught them how to run for cross country. He was in the ROTC for 4 years. He became a master at Mario Brothers and beat his mom many times on an old Nintendo system.

His love of music began at an early age and began playing guitar at the age of 7. He taught himself how to play guitar, bass, drums, keyboards, mandolin, banjo, resonator, organ, harmonica, and self-taught voice.
