He was a great man of integrity, grit, hard work and loyalty.  The absolute strongest Man we know. He could fix anything with his two hands, loved working on cars, trucks making them run too fast! He loved hunting and camping with his Family and Grandkids, especially around Thanksgiving. Dad was the King of BBQ! His ribs and brisket were out of this world. If you had the chance to eat a bite you'd agree. One of his sayings that always made us laugh was this "I'm the Magnificent WOOO!" Dad always made us laugh til our bellies hurt and we will miss that every day. Out of all he loved, he loved his precious, loving wife Rita Flint of 54 years the most. He loved his children and grandchildren so much.
