He was a participant in local, state and national politics and a proud and lifelong member of the Democratic Party. He was an active member of the congregation of St. Mary Catholic Church.

He enjoyed playing on Lake's Softball team and received a trophy for a batting average of .500 in one season with many of his hits being bunts. He loved speed skating. His favorite indoor sport was playing pinochle and cribbage, which he played with fierce and fair competition with his family members and friends. He was the devoted husband of Alice (Wartella) LaHaie for 63 years and father of William LaHaie, Eleanor (James) LeClair, Thomas LaHaie, Marcia (Gregory) Bourrie, Pamela Crawford, Jayne (Donald) Beem, and Charles LaHaie, all of whom survive him, along with 17 grandchildren and eight great grandchildren.
