A husband, dad, pop pop, brother and friend that will never be forgotten. A community smile that will be truly missed. No words can express the heart break this man leaves. No words can express what we will miss. As a young man Fuzzy started his carpentry career at Harry Lundeberg School of Seamanship. Then went on to being a member of the Carpenters Local Union 132 for 35 years. Later on Fuzzy pursued his own adventures as a carpenter. He spent many years building, fixing, and constructing in our county. He quickly became a well-known man for his talent and desire to help anyone he came in contact with. A man of many treasures; if you needed it he had it, if he had it you were welcome to it. He always loved a good sale, whether a yard sale or auction you would see him there. On most Saturdays his girls knew he was going to show up with a great deal he found them. Gardening was a huge part of his life. To call the gardens a garden was a mere understatement. To have only 1 garden was unheard of. Many lessons taught to the grandkids in the dirt and on a tractor. Monday night oyster club was his favorite winter time get together. He greatly enjoyed getting together with those dear friends for cards and oysters. He loved a good card game. Whether it was his Saturday nights with family and friends or his Sunday afternoon card games, he enjoyed all of them. He loved to socialize and had a very kind heart. He wasn’t the guy that sat home, he needed all his family and friends. Fuzzy loved to dance. Let him find you standing idol during a dance and you were swept up and swung around the dance floor. He dearly treasured a good time, and he absolutely had many of them. He loved being on the water. Whether it was trot lining or trying for the big rockfish. And when not summertime you could always find him in a snow plow. At the hint of snow in the forecast he was getting his plows ready. His daughters were his biggest pride. He knew they could help with just about anything he needed and he in turn was their biggest hero. He made a lot of days brighter, a lot of days happier and knew what to do for us on the not so bright days. He was a very proud Pop Pop of 10 grandchildren. He loved nothing more than having them around to play, work or just give a hard time. He was a role model and great teacher to his grandchildren; they have many fond memories and laughs to treasure. He gave his heart and soul to being a lifetime member of the 2nd District Volunteer Fire Dept & Rescue Squad. He joined in 1964 and til his last days held it close to his heart. He was inducted into the Southern Maryland Fire Association Hall of Fame in 2014. He was always a top responder for the SDVFDRS. He spent many days and many nights running calls no matter what he was doing. Fuzzy was a “Everything’s fine” kinda man and our hearts and community will truly miss him.
