An avid leader and participant in the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE). Participating in rallies and protests in Pittsburgh and DC, not only to protect himself but to also help others. A jokester at heart, his wittiness, sarcasm and humor will keep us on his toes even now that he has moved on. He cared deeply for MoMo, Izzy, Bean, and Boots. Taking care of all wildlife that crossed his path. He enjoyed the beach, hiking in nature, working out, and watching movies. His food reviews, movie suggestions, weightlifting advice, political commentary, guidance on how to raise the Spud, and most of all talking to him every day, will be greatly missed by his Sis.
