  He worked for the Mesa Public School District for many years and would always say he could not wait to retire! He was almost there! You will be deeply missed, and you are loved by so many. We will never forget you and always cheer on your “Devils” every time they are on. Until we meet again fly high and enjoy the time with Nana as we know you are.
