He had many talents and worked in the woodworking and welding inspection trades, until retiring. He is survived by his loving wife Betty, and many other dear family and friends. Q was a friendly, caring man. He loved the simple pleasures of life; spending time with family and friends, nature, exploring, fishing, crabbing, photography, tinkering with motors, and tending his yard. He was a lifelong learner, and enjoyed teaching and showing others, especially kids, something new. Q was a faithful member in his church and AA. His welcoming and caring nature, warm smile, hugs, and sense of humor will be greatly missed by all who knew him. His favorite spots were the Salmon River and Pacific City.
