Graduated Minnetonka High School, then on to U of M, graduating Phi Beta Kappa, Sigma Cum Laude. His great loves were reading, history and music. Along came computers. He found joy in helping others with problems, even building computers for family and many friends plus giving advice to AT&T customers, and all who asked. We're sad to see him leave us, but know that he is no longer suffering and has no pain. A blessing to you from son Ryan, mother Doris, brother John (Brenda) sisters Elizabeth (Zach) and Mary (Dan), nephew Christopher, plus many friends including Carol Sue, Tara, and David. Also thanking the many medical staffs who made his life easier and kept his spirit high.
