He loved to play, watch his son play and umpire baseball, play golf, bowl (including a Nationally Sanctioned 300 game) and collect sporting memorabilia. He much enjoyed watching the Green Bay Gamblers Hockey team, where the last game he attended he was taken into the locker room to meet the team and coaches.
