Life on the farm taught him his strong work ethic, rising with the sun to complete chores before school, the unbreakable bond of family, friends and animals and a true love of tending the earth and the people around him.
He met the love of his life, Penny (nee Robertson), when she rode her horse into his field, and it was love at first sight. They went on to an epic love affair that endured over 62 years and they were blessed with 3 children.
