He was not afraid to get his hands dirty. He was a member of the Milan Backstreet Cruisers, and The Wanderers car clubs where he would proudly display his ’68 T-Bird. His second love was fishing, followed only by his love for a great steak followed by a fine cigar! He will be sadly missed by his father, George E.
