Even though he had many health issues as he got older, he would always say "I'm alright for an old man." He had a kind heart and many friends. He loved his family and enjoyed family gatherings. His favorite past time was joining his Uncle Tommy and friends at Roy Rogers.

He is survived by his sister Lora and Randy Shores of Knoxville MD; his nephew Sergeant First Class David Shores of Sierra Vista Arizona; his special niece Dawn and husband Billy Ray Nalley of Knoxville; his great niece Camdyn; great nephews Austin, Tyler, Connor and Kaiden Shores of Frederick MD; his Aunt Nonie and Uncle Tommy Sigler; Aunt Eva and Andy Sewell; Aunt Delores and Jerry Kaufman; and his Uncle Jackie and Aunt Vicki Cooper, and many relatives and cousins.
