He was a retired employee from Halliburton for 33 years. He enjoyed fishing, bowling, golfing and spending time with his family. He was a loving husband, father, grandfather and caring friend who was loved by all, including his Halliburton and extended family.

The Family would like to extend their greatest gratitude to Haydel Hospice and especially to Patti Voss.

The family thanks everyone for their understanding during this difficult time. There will be another service scheduled for a later date, for extended family and friends.
