His sister Marylynn Gerrish-Moninger and brother-in-law Ralph Moninger and their children: Danielle Roberts, CJ Roberts, and Luka Moninger. His longtime friend and the mother of his children Liz Lemmon along with her mother Carol Lemmon. A step sister Lynn Richards-Klein and her children: Dillon, Devin, and Lacey Haight. His aunts, Cyn Brackett, Belinda Sheppard, and Helen Pennington, along with his Uncle Mike. His friends Mike Wickett, Phil Woodard, Shannon Severance, and his special friend Roberta Diane.
