He retired in Summerside, where he resided at the time of passing. He was always a huge fan of harness racing, watching from Red Shores Summerside and Charlottetown.

Survived by wife Millie, brothers Erskine (Betty), Glen (Glenda), Kevin (Mary Anne) and sister Vicky; children Mike, Paul (Brenda) Lori (Darren) Andy (Teresa) and Angie; grandchildren Thomas, Alysha, Melanie, Austin, Ryan, Emileen and Carter. He will be missed and forever loved.
