     He left the city life in 1975, relocating to the clean air and picturesque country views of Potter County, Pa.

     The Number One person in his life was his loving and beautiful wife of 20 years, Kelly Hunter. Along with their beloved dog, Val, they made the most of their time together every day. His greatest joys were his children and grandchildren.

     He was predeceased by his parents, sister Rowene Wilson, nephew Andrew Wilson, and father in-law Norman “Bud” Myers.
