He loved spending time with his family at all the family gatherings, reading, fishing and running bank lines in his earlier years. After his retirement, he loved being outdoors mowing, tending to his garden, which he was very proud of his tomatoes he raised and he got a lot of enjoyment in sharing them with his family, neighbors and friends.

Mattwaoshshe, Hunter Mattwaoshshe, Favour Olokungboye and Victor Olokungboye; and 11 great-grandchildren, along with numerous nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents and a sister, Judy Holthaus.

Funeral services will be held at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, Feb. 12 at Dishon-Maple-Chaney Mortuary in Horton, where the family will greet friends on Friday evening from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. Burial will follow the services at the Horton City Cemetery.
