He loved video games and gaming, especially Dungeons & Dragons, and loved hanging out at hobby shops. He was a social being who enjoyed his friends, trips to Cincinnati to see his friends there, trips to the west side of the state where he enjoyed Lake Michigan, and countless other spontaneous, unplanned adventures that he embarked on.
He was preceded in death by grandparents, Robert Burlew and James and Fay Lee.
