He was an entrepreneur, owning a cleaning franchise and engaging in various real estate investments. Active in his community, he served on the school board for the Neshaminy School District, ran for State Representative, and was a self-published author. He was a man of strong faith, and very involved in his church. He cherished his family and friends.
