    He loved playing with his son, playing games online, and, according to his wife, “the stupid PlayStation”.  He recently started bowling again and enjoyed reading and listening to music.  Before moving to Duchesne to be with his wife, he lived in Boston and North Carolina.
    Although his death is tragic, he was able to help others go on living by being an organ and tissue donor.
