He was preceded in death by his parents, Raymond and Julia, his grandparents Clarence and Carrie, and his Uncle Donald and Aunt Mildred. He graduated from Ohio State and was a huge OSU football and basketball fan.

grandparents and extended family in Cincinnati. He prided himself in hard work and the ingenuity formed from lessons from the family farm.
