He had worked with his Dad and brother doing brick, stone, and concrete work, later becoming a General Contractor for many years until his retirement.

He had a passion for fishing, riding motorcycles, classic cars,dune buggies, walks along the ocean, and also made sure everyone had a great time no matter what we were doing. He loved life and lived it to the fullest with the greatest of smiles.

This world will never be the same without him.
