He was known as grandpa to 7 grandchildren, great grandpa to 12 grandchildren, and great great grandpa to 3 grandchildren. Grandpa loved trains and anything outdoors. He was a sweet man who loved his family and was always crafting. Bright colors made him smile and spend his last 10 years with his daughter in his bright yellow room which he loved so much.
