He was very proud of starting his mink ranch in 1952 with just three mink, and built it up to a business that raised some of the best Nova Scotia black mink. He and Rilla loved to travel, and it took them to Spain, Australia, New Zealand, Hawaii and all over the United States and Canada. Later in life they took up ballroom dancing and loved to talk about all of the people they met along the way. Dad loved to sing gospel music and listened to his music daily during his illness, even singing along at times. The family wishes to thank all of those who were involved in his care at home.
