His legacy is one of vitality, warmth, and an enduring love for the people and pursuits that brought meaning to his days.
He was employed by Verizon for 30 years until his retirement. He was also employed by Brown University for more than 10 years, and also worked for Highland Country Club and Wentworth Hills Country Club in his retirement.
