He was a certified SCUBA diver, RC car and plane (more recently drone) enthusiast, bowled for a while, brewed his own beer in the basement, and could always be found tinkering with or improving on some electronic device. He enjoyed spending time hunting and fishing in Maine, was proud to have obtained his pilot license and made flights around the country, and for many years made friends all over the world through his HAM Radio, call N1ABA.
