He loved sailing and worked as a hydrologist for the U.S. geological survey. Sadly, he died of a heart attack at 39, one month shy of his 40th birthday when I was 2 years old.

I officially outlived him this year when I turned 40 so I thought I’d make my first post in honor of him. 🥳 He was definitely old school cool.

The last photo is of 3 water spouts he captured in Tampa Bay, Florida around 1986. He won second place in a national photo competition.
