He died suddenly of a head injury Dec., 28, 2007, after a very short stay at the Taylor House Hospice in Pennsylvania. He was born Dec. 30, 1939, in Des Moines, Iowa, the son of Dr. L. P.

After completing service in the U.S. Army, he attended and graduated from the University of South Dakota. He married Patricia Anne Putnam on June 10, 1965, in Armour, S.D. The couple moved to Florida where he completed the graduate program in hospital administration at the University of Florida. Following graduation the couple lived in Florida, Indiana and Wyoming, where he worked as a hospital administrator. In 1994, he left hospital administration and went to work for the Joint Commission Accreditation Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) where he continued to work until his death. The loves of his life were his wife, Pat, their daughter, Michelle and his granddaughter, Jordan. His hobbies were traveling, an Indian artifact collection he and his Dad accumulated, gourmet cooking, nature photography and reading. His devotion to his family was evident in the annual family reunions that he, his brother and sister organized for over 25 years. He was a life member of the Wyoming Hospital Association, serving on the Board for 10 years and was board chairman twice. He served on the American Hospital Association Region VIII Policy Board for eight years as alternate delegate and delegate. As residents of Rawlins, he and his wife were members of St. Joseph Parish, served as Eucharistic Ministers and were members of the pre-marriage ministry for 10 years.
