That was some fucked up shit.

This is a picture of him receiving his second Purple Heart.



Sadly he used an M-14 to committe suicide the weekend he closed escrow on a house at Long Beach OR on 9-11-2016.

After returning from Nam he took up fencing because he dertermined that Atlantis will rise (hey man, it was the 60’s) and firearms will somehow disappear.

He became a bonafide fencing master, and taught it from Santa Cruz CA to Spokane WA.

I miss him greatly.
