He graduated from Southwest High School in 1967 then went to St. Louis Community College (Forrest Park) where he met Kathy. He graduated from Webster University with an art degree. He worked at UPS for 19 years (1968-1987) working his way up to management. He enjoyed fishing, Cardinals baseball, rock and roll and folk music, photography and art.
So very sorry for your loss Heather.. thank you for sharing the pictures.. much happier times for sure.. my thoughts and prayers are with you.,
The sweetest couple I’ve ever known.
My fondest memories of my dad were the hours we spent listening to music (from classic rock and folk to classical) and our many trips fishing and camping. The summer after I graduated from high school we went on a trip out to Colorado and the year after that I went back on my own and spent 2 and a half weeks hiking, backpacking and climbing mountains. He will be missed along with his humor and advice.
I really learned a lot about my older brother and really enjoyed my time staying and helping him and Kathy last year! It was a sad day in our family with his passing. I especially remember as a child riding with him on his motorcycle and fishing at Busch Wildlife! In later years I took him to Cardinals and Rams games. R.I.P. Big Brother!
