A son to Oliver & Libby, baby brother to Carol, Helen & Laura, a husband to Pamela and father of Matthew & Gabriella, an uncle to Jennifer & Kristen and their children, a friend and foe on the tennis courts to many, a believer in Salvation, a member of the Metro Boston Church of Christ with special friends Bill Peach, Carlo & Honore, a hard worker with optimism in spades, a gregarious, fun-loving, game playing, grilled cheese eating, adjunct professor who was gifted with the gift of gab. His telephone greeting to his sisters was always like a singing telegram...helllllo, how’r you doing? Mostly cheerful & seldom gloomy, he persisted in searching the rainbow & followed his dreams, no matter how big, and unseemly, he wasn’t daunted. Like in Hamilton, the musical, he was not going to miss his shot!
