In earlier years, he liked to restore old engines and make them run again. He liked to fish, and really loved dogs. He appreciated flowers, and would make nice comments about them when he received bouquets in the nursing home. Though he did not have children - he loved his step children and children in general.
He is survived by his wife Trena of Eugene; step children Harry Ronald Harper and Cathy Ann Cronk; brother Raymond Wolfe of Horton; sisters Margaret Owens of Blachly, June Hanes of Springfield, and Nellie Elam of Pinehurst, Idaho; three step grandchildren, Stephen Harper, Lee M.
