He enjoyed cooking “Feather Bones” for his family. His favorite drink was Chocolate Milkshakes from McDonalds. And, he enjoyed sitting outside to watch traffic while enjoying his “Cold Ones” and eat his pickle sunflower seeds. And, when someone would pass by rather he knew them or not he would always say “Whats up Esa or Whats up Vato”! His favorite pop group was ABBA and, song was Dancing Queen.
