Graduate of St. Mary’s High School, SSgt in the Air National Guard, began his career at Killark Electric; Clark, Sprague Wellington Printing Co.; owned and operated KMJ Printing; and retired from Concordia Publishing. In his retirement, he enjoyed volunteering with St. Vincent de Paul, the Affton Food Pantry, and the little yellow food bus. He also enjoyed spoiling his grandchildren, telling bad dad jokes, playing games with family and friends, listening to ABBA, watching Hallmark movies, and napping in his chair with his puppy on his lap. His kind, generous, humble, patient, hard working, loving, and good natured personality made him loved and admired by all who knew him.
In lieu of flowers, contributions made to the St. Vincent de Paul Society would be greatly appreciated.
