He married the love of his life, Mary Margaret Wright in 1965. She came with 3 young sons. They also raised their first granddaughter Heather years later. Mary Margaret preceded him in death after 45 years of marriage.
He was a lifelong member of Rotary International, and never missed a meeting, often attending out of state while on vacation, which was to Martin’s Ferry, OH most every summer.
His love of dogs dates back to his childhood when he had his first Scottish Terrier. He was the first of many Scotties. His hobbies included machine work, building hot rods, and never met a stranger. He was part of the Littleton Dairy in San Bernardino CA as it was family owned. After the dairy closed, the family built Littleton’s Mobile Home Park.
