He was preceded in death by his mother, Peggy Ann, and father, Darl Earl.
He is survived by his wife Kim, brothers Darl (Sandy) and Darwin, sisters Laureen and Terry, children Heather, Matthew (Kariann), Joshua (Marisa), Bob (Kate), Raymond (Katie), Nicolas (Jennifer) and Coty, and his nieces and nephews. His grandchildren, Caden, McKinley, Hayven, Harmony, Grayson, Myleigh, Trace, Kyson, Camden, Maysen, Bella, Emma, Jeremiah, Gianna, Damien and Faelon will carry on his legacy through the memories they share and the life lessons he taught them. We will miss you dearly but are thankful that you are now watching over all of us as our Angel.
