He will be remembered for his well-maintained yard and home. Junior was a fanatic about antiquing, looking for that perfect glassware. He was an avid fisherman and hunter. It was always a very special event when the grandchildren got to go fishing with him.

One of Junior’s favorite memories was watching his nephews race their stock cars. He himself raced on the dragstrip.
