He started as a truck driver, then moved to the Ready Mix Plant as the dispatcher. For the past 3 years, he has been a salesman. The Construction family has loved working with him and always looked forward to a visit. He was first diagnosed with bladder cancer in 2003 and after a strong fight, it went into remission. He loved his wife and took care of her until the very end as she battled her own health problems. He never complained even as he became ill again. He loved music, painting, golfing, and reading. He especially loved being with his grandchildren and those who called him grandpa. He was an amazing man with an infectious smile, was a friend to all, and touched many lives.
