He later earned his Bachelor's Degree in Civil Engineering and worked as a Project Superintendent from 1967-2005 before officially retiring. He loved the outdoors, whether he was mowing grass, cooking on the grill, or just sitting on the patio talking with his friends and family. He also enjoyed watching football and NASCAR racing on TV. He was a great guy who was loved by many and will be missed by all. Funeral services will be held at 1:00pm on Mon- day, April 15, 2019 at the Haller Funeral Home & Crematory.
