grandchildren; and five great-grandchildren. He is also survived by

The FastLane is looking for some local talent to add splash to the

sharing what Masters swimming means to you, offering a great workout,
delving into a topic of interest or-- you name it. We also always love
photos if you'd rather tell a story with pictures instead of words.
