He attended Louisa County High School where he was a member of the LCHS Marching Lions Marching Band and always loved the Green and Gold so much it extended to being a fan of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish because they shared those same team colors. He was also a devoted fan of the Baltimore Ravens, Baltimore Orioles and UVA Cavaliers. He worked his entire life as a Machinist at several manufacturing facilities throughout VA. He was a gifted musician who could play piano, guitar and many other instruments by ear. When he had spare time, he enjoyed playing music, hunting, and fishing.
