We spent summers up-north on Papa's farm in Hale, MI. He showed my children the beauty of nature and admire the wilderness.

Papa was a great outdoorsman and loved to hunt, hike, swim and fish.

Papa died t his home in Fort Gratiot surrounded with loving fmaily members. He struggled and fought tirelessly and died of prostate cancer.

Forever in our hearts...Words can not explain!
