He was known for his yard full of flowers, especially his prized dahlias. In addition to the outdoors he also loved dancing, singing and music. Some of his favorite artists were Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, not to mention big band orchestra and if it was a Sunday, polka would be playing on the radio all afternoon. He also loved playing cards, animal watching; especially deer in the back yard and cooking. If you stopped by for a visit, you didn't leave without him offering you a drink and something to go with it.
