He enjoyed going to Lake James and Brown County, and other points beyond, going fishing, bowling, boating, making people laugh, creating things, and finally an avid sports fan especially of the Chicago Bears where he would often answer his phone as “George Halas” (the founder of the Bears) Headquarters!!
