Known for his blazing fastball, sense of humor, and devotion to family. Considered the glue that connected a family split by divorce. A star pitcher, helped take West Albany HS to state playoffs for the first time in 41 years. Happy, energetic, never wanted to sit around. Loved playing soccer with Iraqi children.
