I had the pleasure of assisting him through Public Health home care.Was independent,strong willed, proud of his children and grandchildren,often spoke of Lincoln in the military.spoke of his own military experiences. One of his hobbies was building a small scale flyer. Enjoyed his little dogs., tractors and tractor pulls.First met Mr and Mrs Closser at their Restaurant "Dairy Barn " back in 1989. I will remember him kindly,May he rest in peace.
