You could count on him to be cheering on his kids and grandkids from the sidelines rain or shine. More than any hobbies or interests, he loved family and sharing laughs with them. We are eternally grateful for the sacrifices he made in his fight for more time and memories with us.
"A special thank you to the Bethesda North Medical and Intensive Care Staff for their great compassion and care during his final moments to say goodbyes.
