In his youth, he liked to play baseball, basketball and bowling. He was an avid Atlanta Braves fan and enjoyed watching them in the World Series. His favorite past time throughout his life was his love for fishing. He enjoyed fishing for catfish in local lakes/rivers and in the summers traveling to the gulf for saltwater fishing. He enjoyed just being out in Nature and the peacefulness of the sport. In his later years, he took up woodworking and hand crafted several furniture items in his home. His workshop was a place where he found satisfaction in creating, building and sometimes just tinkering. Overall, his greatest joy was being a Father and Grand-Father to two wonderful Grandsons.

He is survived by his son Chris, Daughter-in-law Beth, Grandsons Nathaniel and Daniel, Sister Karen Henry, Nephew Jason Goodson, Niece Hastie Camp and Several Cousins.
