Born on June 19, 1949, He was a proud Army Veteran in the Vietnam War. He spent nearly 40 wonderful years with his wife, Elain Judith Berger, whom he adored. Inspired by their love, he converted to Judaism, embracing a faith that brought him great joy.
An aficionado of simple pleasures, he had a particular fondness for cheeseburgers and fried chicken with a coke, and enjoyed these comforts till the very end. His warmth, humor, and genuine spirit touched the lives of all who knew him. He leaves behind A daughter and grandchildren. He will be deeply missed but forever remembered.
