Our dad was a simple man who found beauty and joy in the simple things. He loved fitness, taking long walks, and stargazing. Known as “Velcro” when he played receiver (#3) for West Carter back in the day, he loved sports – especially football. Our dad also loved watching his kids succeed. He loved to play music,sing and belt his tunes, and shred some chords on the harmonica. Greatest of all, he loved God.
