He loved the Brewers, Packers, and fishing and can't forget polka dancing, for he used to teach Polish Hop with mom at Etzels in Germantown years ago. Until around five years ago, he was a familiar face at St Anthony's for he was an usher for many years. A heartfelt "Thank You" to LindenGrove New Berlin for their compassionate and quality care they provided for dad.
