He was particularly fond of spending time with his grandchildren. We will miss his quick wit and one-liners and trucker jokes. He will truly be missed.

Honorary pallbearers are Earl Bauer, Bill Bauer, Lloyd Bauer, Ken Johnson, Norm Miller and Ray Robinson. Special thanks to a very good friend Raymond Robinson.
