He was a member of the LCAPL Tuesday and Thursday night League, was ranked #1 and top 5 of the Top Gun For Men, and competed annually at the State Championship of which this year he entered from the #1 position. His down time was often spent fishing with his son Patrick, family and friends or vegetable gardening with his son Austin and bride Marion, and also dining with his family and friends or watching a game in his recliner while spoiling his dogs. Amongst his greatest times were those he spent sailing the Caribbean with his family, some trips included friends, a tradition they began many years ago that became a two- and three a year event.
