Everyone’s favorite host. He was also active behind the scenes to ensure a successful event.

His pride and joy was watching his three grandchildren Eva, Nina and Eric flourishing in both academics and sports. He also enjoyed various ballgames including Bocci, and golfing with friends & his “Buddy Boy” Eric.
