The family will receive friends from 11 a.m. Saturday, July 20 until time of service at the funeral home.

One of his final requests was that in lieu of flowers donation be made to the Hancock County Hospice (801 N. State St., Greenfield, IN 46140, Attn: Foundation/Hospice) and to please come dressed comfortably to the funeral as he will be.
