He was a certified mechanic when he joined the York Fire Department and was proud to serve as a firefighter. He enjoyed skiing and was a ski patroller for over ten years, ski instructor and also a personal trainer. He had a great sense of humour, was a proud man and is deeply missed by all who love him.
