He couldn't wait for summer to come and the family camping trips could be planned with loads of laughs and wonderful memories. When he wasn't planning trips he was going to basketball, football, volleyball, softball, soccer, and track meets, coaching and watching his kids and grandkids grow up and make him the proudest dad and grandpa.
