He and his wife moved to Phoenix, Ore. in 1990 to lead a quieter life. He was an avid bowler, fisherman and archer. He loved to sing in the church choir and is remembered as a man with a sweet spirit who loved Jesus. He was not a man of many words but he meant what he said. No services will be held. He is already celebrating with Jesus in heaven. Arrangements by: Hillcrest Memorial Park & Mortuary, Medford, OR (541)773-6162 www.hillcrestmortuary.com
