He loved spending time at the timber, checking on the cows, going up north to Wisconsin, collecting Allis Chalmers tractors, tinkering on some project, cruising around town, but especially wheeling and dealing on vehicles to the point his yard looked like a used car lot at times.
Per Tiny’s wishes no services will be held. Cremation rites have been accorded.

I’m wondering if he was working at Wyanet Locker when I ordered many cuts of meats throughout the years.
