Predeceased by his parents Harry and Hannah, and brother Harry.  A true lover of life and people, he is also survived by the many, many friends he made wherever he went. His loving family hopes that he will be remembered the way he lived – full of optimism, endlessly curious, an incredibly loyal friend, generous. A lover of travel, adventure, sweets, sports and the 11:00 news. He was the very most devoted husband, father, grandfather and ambassador for Agassiz Village. He shared each of our triumphs and was more disappointed in our disappointments than we were. He wanted the very best for all of his family and wide circle of friends. He will be missed each and every day, but his wisdom, humor and eternal optimism will be our inspiration.
