He enjoyed visiting with others, sharing hugs and coffee with his friends and his daughter. He loved eating fish at Don’s Fish Restaurant. He and his family would camp at Pine Creek Lake and crappie fish, sometimes for weeks at a time. He was a lover of cats and always had at least one. He would take the grandkids for a ride on the tractor whenever they visited. R D and Ida were known to their neighbors as ‘the walkers’ as they loved walking for exercise in their neighborhood.
