He was employed by the Proctor Minnesota School District as a Teacher and Counselor until his retirement. He loved the outdoors, Wisconsin history, working in his wood shop, and dancing. He was preceded in death by his parents and his first wife Dorothy Frawley. Survived by his wife Bernice, his children Brett (special daughter-in-law Zilka), Deb, Scott, Tammi, Jean, and his step children John, Steve and Pat, as well as his grand-children and great grandson.
