He was also instrumental with his wife in forming the Illinois Group in Sun City, and had been active in various Sun City clubs and groups including the Amateur Radio Club and Republicans of SCHH. He had also been active in the Garden Walk neighborhood as its first treasurer. He was a fan of both the Chicago Cubs and Chicago Bears. While living in the Chicago area he enjoyed attending many games for both teams and had been a season ticket holder for the Bears. He retired at 65 from his career in marketing and print production. He was also a paid-on-call firefighter in the 1970s for Stone Park, Villa Pink, and Lombard, Illinois. In lieu of flowers, a donation to the Bluffton Self Help would be appreciated.
