in the Wisconsin National Guards from 1966 to 1970.
He worked at Walcott Shoes, Borden’s Cheese Company and retired early from GTE in 1996, so he could
enjoy traveling and started his own handyman business which he shared with his grandsons.

McDonalds.
He was a member of St. John Lutheran Church in Plymouth and was a volunteer at the Plymouth Food
