He attended school in Cache. He worked in construction for 50+ years, he owned his own business “J&J Construction”. He loved fishing, hunting, & gardening both vegetables & flowers. He also loved to watch NASCAR & don’t even get him started when it comes to Kyle Busch. When it came to watching football there was a rivalry between him & Krystal because he really hated the term “America’s Team” when it came to the Dallas Cowboys. He enjoyed watching the Thunder play basketball even though he wasn’t much of a Russell Westbrook fan. He loved to sit outside in the garage & wave & holler at people as they drove by. He enjoyed experimenting in the kitchen & everything he cooked always turned out good. Whenever someone would come over & ask to borrow his tools, he would always let them. He was a compassionate, caring person who loved his family dearly. He would give you the shirt off his back if he thought you needed it. He had his ornery side too; he loved to play jokes on people. He was not someone who easily showed affection but he dearly loved his family. He was fortunate to have known a lot of people and to have had lifelong friends.
