If he was laughing, so was everyone else even if they had no idea what they were laughing about. He lit up every room he entered. He touched so many lives and was loved by all. His love was the mountains and rivers of Montana and that is where he was most at peace. From hunting, fishing, floating, and hiking, the mountains were always calling and he had to go.
