His grandchildren were the center of his world, and he treasured every moment spent with them, especially cheering them on from the sidelines. He is also survived by his loving siblings: Don and Pat Felver of Lawrenceville, GA, Bud and Juanita Felver of Piqua, Bob and Barb Bowman of Casstown, and Rose and Bob Anderson of Gainesville, GA.
