He moved to Fairfield in 1985 and received his M.S. in Computer Science at Maharishi International University.

He was a pilot, and for many years owned a plane and made innumerable trips around the Midwest with family and friends. He was happiest "in any moving vehicle" and spending time with friends in Fairfield and family in Battle Creek. He loved longs walks in the woods with Cindy and his best canine friend Tucker, and movie nights with his "adopted son" Sylvio (Charly) CRONE of Fairfield and Cologne, Germany.
