He also discovered a love of cooking from his mother and loved to experiment with new recipes. He was his father’s beloved son, went wherever his dad went, and loved going to all the places to collect stuff from thrift stores or anything they could find for a bargain or for free… especially if it involved food and trinkets. He loved family get-togethers and loved all the foods.
