Whereas, his full life was further enriched by his love of travel by motor home, and he was fortunate to have experienced the beauty of both this country and Europe; and

Whereas, he is survived and missed by Debra and the rest of his loving family: wife, Selma; other daughters, Sonja and Cynthia-Ann; grandson, Dexter, and granddaughters, Candace, Daniela, and Margaret-Ann; great-granddaughter, Caitlynn; brother, James E.
