I Graduated from Humber College, in Toronto and Simmons Institute, in Syracuse, NY.  I am one of the few Canadian Funeral Directors to achieve an Associates Degree in Funeral Service Education, a License in New York State and an Award in Restorative Artistry to compliment my Ontario Funeral Director's License. I have a loving wife Catherine, a beautiful daughter Cassie and 2 step sons, Brody and Tanner.

  I have served as the Chair of the Brantford Police Services Board, a past member of the board of directors with the Chamber of Commerce, the Kiwanis Club (25+ years) of Brantford, the Brantford General Hospital Foundation, Nova Vita Women's Shelter, the Children's Aid Foundation Board and many more. Serving my community is my passion.

I've been a member of the Brantford Golf & Country Club, Golf North, Burford Golf Course, Northridge & Arrowdale Municipal Golf Courses. When time permits you may find me on a golf course with friends or playing snooker or pool.  I take part in many Brantford based team sports leagues, such as Brant County Snooker League (many years as President or Vice President), 8 ball and 9 ball.
