He was also an active member of the Inman Lion's Club where he was recently awarded the "Franklin Mason Award" . His family emphasized that he went from being a New Jersey native, to a North Carolina resident, to becoming an avid Clemson Fan and then a baptist !

A Memorial Service to celebrate his life will follow at 3:00 PM with Dr Michael Hamlet & Rev. Michael Jones officiating.
