He was a quiet man, but those who knew him well will tell of his witty sense of humor, (he could make a pun out of just about anything), his unselfishness, his honesty, and his loyalty. He was a very hardworking man, and even worked throughout his two year illness. He will be missed immensely. He was a member of Redeemer Lutheran Church in Highland, IN.
