He supported all of Maria’s business ideas including her consignment store, plant business and newest charcuterie board business. He was Maria’s greatest supporter and partner in every sense of the word. As a father, he raised five children (three boys, two girls and Lennon) while working long hours at UPS. He took the time to take his kids to the park, fishing and all sorts of adventures. His greatest gift was the ability to brighten everyone’s day (just with his smile and exuberant personality).
