He is survived by his children, Michelle, Rick, and Christopher; his grandchildren, Mikaela, Justin, and Nicholas; his baby brother Ronnie; and a circle of family who loved him dearly and shared in his laughter throughout the years. “Over and out” was his signature sign-off, which captured his charm and sense of humor. He was deeply devoted to his wife, children, and grandchildren, who were the center of his world. He was outgoing, endlessly playful, and genuine. He loved making people laugh. Generous by nature, he was known as the family medic, always ready with advice, a remedy, or a calm word of guidance. Beyond his own family, he took many neighborhood kids under his wing, offering mentorship and a steady presence that left a lasting impact.
